Armeline was a skillful modiste and could fashion clothes professionally and with style and beauty. She possessed many virtues; was shrewd, understanding and wise but has the ability to be loved by all her family. She married 6 months after her arrival in Minnesota to John Laramie, a railroad engineer, both at the age of 22. She wore a brown satin dress that she styled herself. The dress was made with a high neck, tight waist and trimmed with black beads. A long ankle length pleated skirt and a small hat to match her dress completed her attire. The groom wore a dark business suit. Pictures were taken on tintype time with Armeline on the left and John on her right on a swing type chair. After their marriage they resided in Barnesville, Minnesota.
