On September 8, 1937, Leatta Marie Ford of Randsburg, California and Lester Anderson of Tehachapi were married in a small chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Lester's sister Laura and her husband Brick Jones travelled to Las Vegas with the couple to be their witnesses at the ceremony.
Leatta look especially beautiful in her lovely red dress that she had purchased before leaving home.
Lester made a handsome groom in his favorite Levi's, western shirt and boots.
On the night before their wedding the couple were supposed to have gone to a baseball game but elope instead. Lester had made arrangements with his sister and brother-in-law to go with them. The two couple's enjoyed the sights of Las Vegas and Boulder Dam before returning home.
Leatta and Lester have spent the last seventy-one years happily married and living in Tehachapi.
