Daughter of American Atom Scientist To Marry At Gretna Green.. Husband-To-Be Comes From Rotterdam..
The marriage is to take place soon at Gretna Green of 18 year old Anna Pryce daughter of a top American atom scientist - now on secret work in Europe and 25 year old Antonius Groen who comes from Rotterdam, Holland.. The couple met at Cambridge College of Hairdressing last July - a week after her arrival in this country.. They became engaged on Guy Fawkes Day - and Anna asked her father if she could marry - and he said "No".. The couple went to Gretna - and rang home (in Weymouth, Dorset) and told her mother where they were - and mother said everything was 'Ok' and that she would attend the wedding.. So now the wedding will take place with the blessing of both parents - so it is n longer a runaway wedding.. Up to last July Anna was in High School in Virginia..
