The re-enactment will mark the 118th anniversary of the Upton marriage. A garden reception will follow at the Harriet Taylor Upton House.

Invitations will be issued to members of the Upton Association; however, if there are seats available, invitations then will be sent to those who are on the waiting list.

Taylor was originally from Warren. However, she moved to Washington with her father Ezra Taylor, a congressman. Taylor was a member of the women’s suffrage movement.

When he met Taylor, Upton worked for the War Department in Washington. After they moved to Warren, he practiced law.
