Collections Corner: Unidentified Wedding Photo

————

Can you help us identify this couple? Our collection holds many wonderful photographs, and sometimes we come across a series with little or no information.

This wedding photo, dated 1946, lists only the first names “Genevieve” and “Bert.” Beyond that, the details are a mystery.
