Notes: Marriage (Mary Massey):

Marr. by P. Walker. Note: Marr. bond is Mar. 31, 1838, marr. date only shows 3-1838. Confusing at 1st glance, but Mar. has 31 days, thus, 3-1838 is short for 3-31-1838. The bond must come before the marr., thus it can only be marriage on Mar. 31, 1838. Transcriptions only show Mar. 1838, which is accurate, by the notation, but wrong in interpretation.
