  Possible death 17690/1943 FORSYTH ELIZABETH GERTRUDE MOSES SARAH CHATSWOOD The Daily Telegraph (Sydney, NSW : 1883 - 1923) Sat 1 Aug 1896 Page 14 SOCIAL. One of the most important social functions witnessed for some considerable time took place at Willoughby on Wednesday, the 22nd ult., the occasion being the marriage of Miss Lizzie Gertrude Walker, daughter of Mr. M. Walker, formerly of Sussex, England, to Mr. William Henry Forsyth, eldest son of Mr. R. Forsyth, of Willoughby. The ceremony was performed at the local Wesleyan Church by the Rev. H. W. T. Pincombe, the building being tastefully decorated for the occasion by the numerous friends of the bride and bridegroom. The bride looked very charming in white liberty silk, with chiffon and pearl trimmings, and sprays of orange blossom. A handsome gold brooch, the gift of the bridegroom, and a magnificent bouquet composed of jonquils, snowdrops and narcissus completed the costume. The bridesmaids were Miss Mabel Walker, sister of the bride; Miss Ettie Chapman, of Wollombi; Miss Minnie May Forsyth, and Miss Alice Maude Forsyth, the first-named occupying the place of honor. They looked very pretty in white French delaine with picture hats to match, and wore gold brooches, also the gifts of the bridegroom. The duties of best man were faithfully discharged by Mr. Robert Forsyth, brother of the bridegroom, while Mr. Arnold Walker, Mr. Edward Forsyth and Mr. James T. Cradick played the chivalrous part of groomsmen. At the conclusion of the ceremony Miss Amy Fleming played the Wedding March, and the happy couple and party drove away amid showers of roses and rice. The reception was held at the Willoughby Temperance-hall, the breakfast being subsequently served to some 60 or 70 guests. A formidable toast list was enthusiastically discussed, after which music, singing, etc., were the order of the day. Among those present were Rev. Joseph and Mrs. Walker. Mr. Robt. Forsyth. J.P., and Mrs. Forsyth Misses Minnie and Alice Maude Forsyth, Mr. and Mrs. Fleming, Mr. Howard Fleming, B.A., Miss Amy and Bertha Fleming, Mr. M'Kenzie, Miss Nall, Mr. A.
