We rarely see the extra clues of a wife's maiden name printed on a card. This fancy card is most likely their marriage card, a beautiful piece, and most likely the only copy in existence. This beautiful piece was found in Deerfield, Franklin County, Massachusetts. It is most likely the only copy in existence.
