The Eddy Family

I don't know where the Eddy family connects in. This picture is from the Mayne/Guthrie/Rasmussen photo collection. The back of the photo lists the following names and ages: Vera Eddy - 8 yrs, Imo Eddy - 5 yrs 3 mo., Edna Eddy - 3 yrs 5 mo., and Verne Eddy - 5 mo. 12 days. Taken May 20th 1905. I found the family on the 1920 Census in La Moille, IL. Parents Wallace E. Eddy and Laura H. Angier. He was a dentist in La Moille.

Wedding picture of Jens Peder Rasmussen and Anna Marie Pedersen?

According to a note with this picture, Florence Rasmussen said that this might be a picture of Jens Peder Rasmussen and Anna Marie Pedersen on their wedding day (Peter and Marie Rasmussen's grandparents from Denmark). According to my records Jens was born in 1822 and Anna in 1839. I'm not sure that I see that much of an age difference here, plus the picture would have been taken c. 1860. I suppose that I could convince myself that he's 38 and she's 21, but would like some other opinions.
