A DRESSED and DR AWN an all time peacetime high last year, according to a study of rec- ords at the County Courthouse totaled by The Citizen today. In 1951, 474 couples applied to wed. This was smaller than the wartime peak of 641 couples in 1945, but higher than 1950's 430 figure. ‘The number of couples getting married in Key West is affected by wars, depression, and of course population growth. Few people could afford to marry back in 1930 when only 125 couples scraped together the dunds for housekeeping. In 1935, the year after the bot- tom of the depression had been lifted somewhat by Federal ac- tivities, marriages numbered only 139, Ten years later the war and its influx of servicemen in Key ‘West had tripled the number, bringing it up to 641. The advent of peace dropped the number of marrying couples ae 430 in 1950. The Korean war and expansion of the military here in Key West, plus the boom, home of M Program.
