There are lots of simultaneous events in this list. Three marriages on the same day (and all on my mother's side of the family). Karen Hendren is being born while Milton Hutson is getting married. Doris Allen is born the same day that Harry Gaunt dies. Then 1st cousins Milton Hutson and Lyle Snyder choose to marry on August 25, five years apart, and August 25 is Milton's sister's birthday.
