From the December 8, 1910 Brooklyn Daily Eagle:

“Ravenna, Ohio — Addie Potter Chapman and Glenn E. Colton, who live in this place, were married to-day before the open grave of Mrs. Lydia Potter Chapman, mother of the bride. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Dr. A.D. Palmer, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, who officiated at the funeral, and having performed the last rites over the body of the mother, turned to the young couple at the grave. The body was in the grave and the grave diggers were ready to throw on the dirt, but waited until after the wedding ceremony was performed. Before her death Mrs. Chapman requested that her daughter be wedded at her grave.”
