It was our good fortune to be among the invited quest upon this pleasant occasion. The hospitable mansion of the bride's parents was crowded with friends, among who were a large number of gentlemen who have thus far in life been going it alone, and to whom the occasion should at least be suggestive of better things in the future. After the ceremony was performed, the happy couple received congratulations of their friends, and a pleasant ??? prevailed, until supper was announced, and all partook of an elegant repast.

Ref: Love Letters, Family Quarterly Newsletter, Vol. 9, #2, pg. 13 -- Reprinted from Colorado Families: A Territorial Heritage (Colorado Genealogical Society, Inc., Denver, CO, 1981 - Virginia Catharine Weiser was born 24 Apr. 1842 in Chambersburg, Franklin Co., PA and married Joseph A. Love 10 Jul. 1877 in Georgetown, CO with her father officiating. “Pioneer Jo,” as he was endearingly known, was born 11 Jul. 1829 in Coshocton Co., OH. He died in Georgetown 3 Jan. 1908 and was buried there in the old Alvarado Cem. Virginia died 25 Sep. 1921 in Denver and is buried there at Fairmount Cem. in the Weiser plot.
Jo Love came to CO early in 1860 and made a trip up Clear Creek where he camped on the site, which became Georgetown. In 1861 he went to Empire which was the scene of much mining activity and for several years prospected the mountains with James D. Peregrine another 1860 pioneer from Central City. In the spring of 1863 Jo built a cabin at Empire and established a hack line to Central City which he operated until 1867, at which time he purchased part interest in the general store of William Spruance at Fall River. “Spruance & Love” moved to Georgetown on Alpine St. {6th} in 1868 and Jo managed the store while Mr. Spruance served as County Clerk. After Jo and Virginia married he operated a secondhand store in Georgetown, for 30 years, and she followed her professional career as piano teacher. Soon after Jo’s death Virginia moved to Denver where she was an active worker in the WCTU, Pioneer Ladies’ Aid Club, and West Side Woman’s Club.

There was regular stagecoach service to be had. J. A. Love & Co.'s Express left Georgetown every morning at eight o'clock for Central City. Wells, Fargo, & Co., operated over the same route on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays. Baily and Nott drove their coaches to Central on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The eastern mail arrived on these days and departed on other week days."
Ref: The Colorado Miner, 11 Mar. 1882 - Joseph A. Love has been appointed special policeman to watch the blasting done by the railroad graders and to prevent damage to town property as far as possible. We understand him to be in the employ of the town.
Ref: Empire and the Berthoud Pass -- pg. 39 -- Joseph A. Love reached Empire City in February, 1861, only to find that the entire valley had been preempted. Having narrowly escaped death by hanging as a result of a land lease dispute near Denver, Mr. Love was inordinately sensitive to land claims. Consequently, he retreated from the district to prospect the area around Mill City five miles east, and populated only by himself and a few other hopefuls.
Joseph Love had come from Ohio via the Platte River route in 1860 and had leased a ranch from a man named Bill Shaffer. Toward the end of the season, Peter Magnus had arrived at the site to demand possession of the property. When Mr. Love refused to surrender it without some compensation for his work, Peter Magnus began assembling a posse of friends to take possession by force, vowing to lynch Joe Love, who he believed had jumped his property.
Informed of his peril, Mr. Love had barricaded the ranch building and had prepared to meet the lynching party with bullets. Forewarned of their own danger, the lynchers had then decided to parley. They told Mr. Love that the Jams Shaffer who had leased him the property had actually jumped it while Peter Magnus, the real owner, was away. Convinced that this was the truth of the matter, Mr. Love vacated the premises and headed for Empire City. Thwarted again there in his desire to locate, he decided to remain in the vicinity in the off chance he could latch on to a little ground later on when land might not be held so dear at the booming gold camp.
Pg. 122 -- That frustrated settler, Joseph A. Love, had returned to Empire City in the spring of 1863 and managed to acquire a single lot on Park Avenue. On it, he built a cabin for baching quarters and began operating the hack line to Central City as well as a livery stable. Although his policy was to give limited credit, times were good, business was brisk, and he began to prosper despite his generous ways.
Pg. 233 -- About 1867-68 -- Joe Love closed up his livery business and discovered a sulpher spring at Junction City (a.k.a. Empire Junction) (the location of the hot spring is no longer known) enroute to Georgetown where he opened up a store in partnership with William Spruance --
Pg. 279 ff -- About Oct. 1878 -- Joseph A. Love, that frustrated early settler, was even at this late date having a hard time settling. His partner in business in Georgetown, William A. Spruance, had boarded the train at Lawson and tendered a one hundred-dollar bill to the conductor to pay his fare of fifty cents to Georgetown. Charles Covert, the conductor, said he had no change for that amount. Spruance then offered a ten dollar bill which he snatched back when Covert reached for it -- (violence follows) --- Withdrawing from his partnership Spruance, Joseph A. Love decided to found is own town and began putting up a building near his sulpher spring at Swansea. A town site was platted to include single and double lots, 25 x 100 feet and 50 x 100 feet respectively, for which a list of thirty applicants sought to establish various businesses there. However, the railroad track made several curves passing through the site which made considerable obstacles in the way of laying off the lots. Mr. Love took the matter to Superintendent Henry, who not only agreed to straighten the track and adapt it to survey lines, but also reserved grounds within the town limits for a depot sits. --- But the town did not flourish on the ashes of Swansea, and Joseph A. Love's habit of extending credit eventually cost him his last dollar.

Ref: Georgetown Courier, Saturday, 11 Jan. 1908, pg. 4 -- Pioneer "Jo" Love Dead -- Joseph A. Love, one of the pioneer residents of Clear Creek county, was found dead in his bed on Saturday evening of last week. The body was found by Mrs. Love who returned from a visit to Denver on the evening train. It is supposed that the venerable man departed this life on Friday night, as he was last seen on the streets in the afternoon of that day.
In the death of Mr. Love another trailblazer of Colorado has gone to his reward. Coming to Colorado in 1860, he had experienced the usual ups and downs that go to make up the life of the men who did so much toward the up building of the Centennial State. A resident of Clear Creek County since 1861, he was familiarly known to all the older residents.
Mr. Love was born in Coshocton Co., Ohio, Jul. 11, 1829, and came to Colorado in the early part of 1860, first engaging in farming at what is now Petersburg. In May, 1860, he made a trip up Clear Creek and camped on the site of Georgetown. In February, 1861, Mr. Love went to Empire, which was then the scene of much activity. He spent the summer and winter of 1861 at Mill City, and prospected the mountains with James Peregrine. During the summer of 1862, Mr. Love and five companions prospected Clear Creek for gold as for up as east and West Argentine. He returned to Empire in the spring of 1863, and after building a cabin, established a hack line to Central City, which he carried on until 1867. In 1865, when East Argentine was swarming with silver prospectors, he was awarded the contract to carry the mail to that district, but made only two trips on account of the failure of the postmaster to qualify. In 1867 he purchased an interest in the store of William Spurance at Fall River, and had general charge of the business. The firm removed to Georgetown in the spring of 1868, Mr. Love retaining charge of the business, while Mr. Spruance was attending to the duties of the office of County clerk. He withdrew from the firm in 1874, and engaged in mining, acting for some time as superintendent of the Phoenix mine. Subsequently he engaged in carrying on a second hand store, which he conducted until the time of his death. Mr. Love was married a little more than thirty years ago to Miss Jennie Weiser, who survives him.
The funeral took place Monday morning and was attended by a large circle of friends and acquaintances. The services were held at the Presbyterian Church, Rev. Junkin officiating. (picture)
Ref: (same as above) -- Alex Cree came up from Denver Monday to attend the funeral of Joseph A. Love. Mr. Cree was one of the early day residents, and this was his first visit here for nine years. He came to Georgetown in the sixties, and was engaged successfully in mining, book and news business.

Mrs. Love was born in Chambersburg, PA, April 24, 1842. She came to Georgetown in 1872, and on July 10, 1877, married Joseph A. Love, who died Jan. 3, 1908. Soon after his death, Mrs. Love moved to Denver, where she became an active worker in the W.C.T.U, the Pioneer Ladies' Aid club and the West Side Women's club. She was a frequent contributor to various papers and magazines, until she was stricken with blindness and deafness five years ago.

Ref: Picture – Picture of a man wearing what appears to be a uniform – confirmed to be Hiram W. Love and likely his wife, Amanda – the other couple with them that has not been identified. Could that be Joseph Love and his wife, Virginia Weiser? I don’t think so because Amanda had died by 1869 and Joseph didn’t marry until 1877. I think the second couple is Robert B. Graham and wife Nancy, a nephew.
Ref: Mary Bennett – Iowa Historical Society, Iowa City, IA – Yes, #1082 seems to be the same person as the image you sent of Albert Love. We do not have the same image of the two couples that you sent. The pictures that we sent came from the collection of an Iowa City photographer, Issac A. Wetherby, and were probably taken around 1865-1870 period. We have over 1,000 plates from his portrait studio and the name of the customer is etched on the side of the plate. Many of these are actually intended to be ambrotypes once a black backing is placed behind them. It appears to us the child Maj. Love is holding on his lap is a little girl, not a boy.

Hiram achieved the rank of Major of the Iowa 2nd Cav. He resigned on 8 Aug. 1863 due to physical disabilities.

Albert L. Love gave an affidavit for his Father on Civil War pension certificate #396977. He stated that when his Father returned from the War in 1863 that he was in no condition to do manual labor on account of rheumatism, chronic diarerra, and pain in his lungs or chest. They resided together until 1873. Albert was 34 and living in Livingston, Park Co., Montana Territory, no date. (signature)


Jane Graham (signature) also said the same thing about Hiram.
Hiram on 30 Jun. 1888 was 50 yrs., a resident of Iowa City, IA, enrolled on 14 Aug. 1861 in Co. H of the 2nd Iowa Cavalry as Captain and was honorably discharged at LaGrange, TN on 8 Aug. 1863. His personal description was that he was 50 yrs. of age, 5 feet 11 1/2 inches tall, fair complexion, Sandy hair, and had dark grey eyes. That while as a member of the 2nd Calvary in the line of duty at Farmington, TN in May 1862, he contracted rheumatism by exposure and that he has since suffered severely from disease. That since leaving service has resided in Iowa, Missouri and Washington, D. C. and his occupation has been that of Merchant and Clerk.

Mr. Love was an Uncle of Robert Graham, the livery man (being a brother of the late Mrs. Benjamin Graham, Sr., and of Mrs. J. B. Daniels, now living in the west. His only surviving child is a son, Albert, in Montana.
Major Love was the organizer of Company H, Second Iowa Cavalry, and was elected Major in that Cavalry, after his company moved from Iowa City and joined the other brigade. He was the Father of the company in which the late Benjamin Owen of Iowa City was Captain.
His wife will be recalled as Miss Amanda McGill, daughter of the late Rev. Samuel McGill, famous for his voluminous writing of poetry, in the early days of Iowa City.
Old friends of the estimable pioneer will grieve to learn of the gallant soldier and good citizen.

Major Love at one time occupied a prominent place in Iowa City affairs, being organizer of Company H of the second Iowa Cavalry. His residence here was the site of the present Dean Gregory home.
The remains will be brought to this city for interment in Oakland Cemetery.
Ref: Progressive Men of Montana, pg. 277 – Albert L. Love – Hiram W. Love, a native of Ohio, where he was born in 1830, removed to Iowa in early life, and was a manufacturing dealer in tinware until the time of the Civil war, when he joined the Second Iowa Cavalry and served through the war, rising to the rank of major. After his muster out at the close of the war he lived for a time in Washington, D. C., and then removed to Oregon, where he now resides on a fruit farm, from which he realizes large returns. His wife was Amanda Magill, a daughter of Samuel Magill, one of the substantial citizens of Cumberland, MD, and both were of Irish ancestry. Albert L. Love, son of this worthy couple, was born in Iowa on August 30, 1853, attended the common schools and the state university of his native state, and took a special course in business training at a commercial college, from which he was graduated in 1872. He then went to Kansas City and learned the tinner’s trade. After following this for two years he became a clerk in an Iowa bank and later in various stores, becoming then traveling salesman for a Chicago house, until he became ill in the fall of 1877. After recovering his health the next spring he went to the Black Hills, in South Dakota, and for four years engaged in bookkeeping. In 1882, he removed to Montana, driving a bull outfit to Billings, arriving on August 1, and the next day accepting a position in a bank.
The next spring the bank concluded that its interests demanded a branch bank and sent Mr. Love to establish one at Livingston, making him its cashier, a position he held for five years and achieving a notable success and reputation. He resigned at the end of the time named and removed to Crow Creek valley, in Jefferson county, and engaged in stock raising, but sold his stock in 1897 and in 1898 took up his residence in Bozeman, where he was appointed register of the United State Land Office, a position which he still holds (1901). He has always been active in political affairs on the Republican side and in 1894 was elected to the state legislature. He later was the candidate of his party for state auditor, but was unable to fully overcome the heavy adverse majority in the state. Mr. Love was married on May 15, 1884, to Miss Jennie Goughnour, of Livingston, MT, a daughter of Emanuel Goughnour, a native of Pennsylvania. He was interested in mining, among other official stations having been vice-president of the Cokedale Coke and Coal Company, of which Samuel Hauser was president.
He is an active and zealous member of Bozeman Lodge No. 463, B.P.O.E. Whatever he has engaged in has prospered and he is regarded one of the reliable business men of the community.

Ref: Progressive Men Of Montana, pg. 277 – Albert L. Love – Hiram W. Love, a native of Ohio, where he was born in 1830, removed to Iowa in early life, and was a manufacturing dealer in tinware until the time of the Civil War, when he joined the Second Iowa Cavalry and served through the war, rising to the rank of major. After his muster out at the close of the war he lived for a time in Washington, D.C., and then removed to Oregon, where he now resides on a fruit farm, from which he realized large returns. His wife was Amanda Magill, a daughter of Samuel Magill, one of the substantial citizens of Cumberland, MD, and both were of Irish ancestry. Albert L. Love, son of this worthy couple, was born in Iowa on August 30, 1853, attended the common schools and the state university of his native state, and took a special course in business training at a commercial college, from which he graduated in 1872. He then went to Kansas City and learned the tinner’s trade. After following this for two years he became a clerk in an Iowa bank and later in various stores, becoming then traveling salesman for a Chicago house, until he became ill in the fall of 1877. After recovering his health the next spring he went to the Black Hills, in South Dakota, and for four years engaged in bookkeeping. In 1882 he removed to Montana, driving a bull outfit to Billings, arriving on August 1, and the next day accepting a position in a bank.
The next spring the bank concluded that its interests demanded a branch bank and sent Mr. Love to establish one at Livingston, making him its cashier, a position he held for five years and achieving a notable success and reputation. He resigned at the end of the time named and removed to Crow Creek Valley, in Jefferson County, and engaged in stockraising, but sold his stock in 1897 and in 1898 took up his residence in Bozeman, where he was appointed register of the United State Land Office, a postion which he still holds (1901). He has always been active in political affairs on the Republican side and in 1894 was elected to the state legidslature. He later was the candidate of his party for state auditor, but was unable to fully overcome the heavy adverse majority in the state. Mr. Love was married on May 15, 1884, to Miss Jennie Goughnour, of Livingston, MT, a daughter of Emanuel Goughnour, a native of Pennsylvania. He was interested in mining, among other official stations having been vice-president of the Cokedale Coke and Coal Company, of which Samuel Hauser wsa president. He is an active and zealour member of Bozeman Lodge No. 463, B.P.O.E. Whatever he has engaged in has prospered and he is regarded one of the reliable business men of the community.
