From the Bath Independent and Enterprise, 30 Nov 1907:S8
- "November has been quite an eventful month for Mr. and Mrs. Wilmot Dodge, inmates at the Home for Aged Couples and Old Men. On the first of the month Mr. Dodge observed his eighty-first birthday. Thursday, Mr. and Mrs. Dodge celebrated their fiftieth marriage anniversary, and yesterday Mrs. Dodge was 86 years of age. The anniversary Thursday [28 Nov 1907] was observed in a quiet manner. Many friends called. The lady managers of the Home presented her with a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a special menu was served for dinner. The happy couple are enjoying very good health. They have been at the Home for two years."
This contradicts some of the census info over the years, as the 1900 census indicated they had married for 51 years, and Wilmot has consistently been one year older than Susan in the census. However, at age 80+ the Dodges can be forgiven for a bit of lack of clarity.
