The wedding Day of my parents John Francis Dolphin and Mary Anne Jackson

I just got this photo of my parents from my younger sister Bernardine on this Monday morning of June 24th, which is the feast day of St. John the Baptist.
They were married in late November in 1934 at St. Bernard's Church on Lincoln Street in Worcester, Massachusetts.
My Father;s name is John Francis Dolphin, jr. and my Mother Mary Anne Jackson. My Father was born on March 6th in 1908
the second child and first son to Mary E. O'Suivan and John Francis Dolphin in Worcester, Massachusetts and my Mother, Mary Anne Jackson on August 23rd 1913 and the first child to
Kathleen  MacManus her Mother and her Father patrick Jackson.
She was the firsr child in a family of 13 children in County Fermanagh and a small village of Corgh in Northern Ireland.
Our parents wedding Daywas always celebrated on Thanks giving Day which was the 4th Thursday of the month of November.
After their wedding , Mom and Dad travelled in Dad;s Model T. Ford  heading for Niagra Falls in New York State.  However the roads were icy in Western Massachusetts going towards Albany, New York,  The car slid of the road and apparently sh thought she was in heaven. But Dad got the car fixed in Albany, New York through afriend he knew..
The travel plans were changed and they went to New York City and the did their Christmas shopping in the big department store of Macy's..
