Dear Bruce,
From reading the first chapter of the "Pittsburgh tour" book, I noticed that he didn't know whether father or son Russell was the first to be married to an Ackley sister.
Probably you will know it, but if not, see the webpage
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MW6C-M19
and you will find the contents of the 1880 Unite States census for C. T. Russel (sic).
He is married to Marie F Russell, his father lives in his house as Russel J. L. Russel (sic). And E H Ackly, single.
So the son married definitely first, and the father after the 1880 census.

Congratulations Ton for helping to solve a mystery, the solution of which has personally me personally for decades!
Clicking on Emma's name she comes up as step sister to head of household (CTR) and marital status, single.
What was the date of the census?
For the first "personally", read "eluded", unless someone can alter the post - written in haste and a little excitement.
That's right Sherlock, the newspaper said:
Married:
Russell-Ackley-On Thursday evening, March 13, 1879, at the residence of the bride's.
(I have a copy of a clipping)
