Notes: Marriage (Frances Ashbridge):

Unknown if Oct. 9, 1906 is marr. date or the bond date. In the 1810 census, there is 1-child under 10, and no others; he's Pleasant Odle & his birth seems to be 1809. It's odd they waited abt. 2-years before having a child; she was abt. 15 when married. I treat it here as the marr. date. They later moved to Kentucky where she died, then he to Indiana.
