[Danevang School Class in Front of School Building]

Photograph of a large group of students taken just outside of the front entrance of Danevang School in Danevang, Texas. They are gathered roughly into five rows. The set of double-doors behind them is open within a small overhang. On the front-facing wall, three double-hung windows are visible. They appear to have been organized from oldest to youngest top to bottom. There is faint hand-written text on the front bottom margin that reads, "Danevang School 1922-23."

Andrew & Dagny Jensen Marriage License

Marriage license provided to Anders Jessen Jensen and Dagny Andersen from the Wharton County courthouse. There is a black and white illustration at the very top of the document of a bell composed entirely of small flowers, with a leafy vine emerging from the back of the bell and encircling it in an arc. This bell is inside a circular motif with decorative geometric elements around the edge, and is flanked on both sides by bold, Old English text that declares the document as a Marriage License. Hand-written text has been placed in several areas: where it calls for the names of the couple, dates, signatures, etc. The actual ceremony was ordained by Pastor J. A. M. Rodholm. When closed, the information provided in the opened document is condensed into the upper half of the document's back.
