Notes: Marriage (Odessa A. Meadows):
Their marriage license reflects witnesses and a marriage taking place, but no date, or place in stated in the specified form locations. The filing date is Feb. 23, 1944, Wentworth, NC. The Marriage Index likewise isn't complete, lining through the day field, and the location, but completion of the month field of Feb. I can only presume that the officiant used the filing date as the marriage date, and used only Rockingham county as the location. According to their obituaries, they definitely were married.
