First Divorce Followed by Annulment of Second Marriage
In 1912 David Hand held two wives until the circuit court ruled that his second marriage to a woman named Fannie Hend was invalid. Fannie Hend sought annulment after discovering Hand’s prior marriage to Thelen Iland. The court annulled Hand’s second marriage, leaving the first wife, Fannie Nelson Hand, to pursue divorce, which was granted in December 1912.
