* (The form of notation is interesting, it reads [translated from Latin]; "On the 24th day of June, 1854, with the required dispensation, after notification of the doubtful baptism of the groom, received from the Most Rev. Bishop on the 21st. of June in the same year, there were joined in matrimony, before me as a witness, Ransom Sawyer, an American 51 years of age, and left widower by two wives,--who lives in the hamlet of Grandville-- and in religion a Methodist--and Leocadia Trompe, a Canadian, 36 years of age, the widow of Mr. Faineant, --who lives in Grand Rapids, and a Catholic. The witnesses were Consider Guild and his wife, Theresa Marsac.") |
