Hello Eliz It is certain that the marriage between Robert PRIOR and Mary PIKE took place and the eldest son was born after a 4 month gestation!! I have a copy of both documents!! Robert died in 1855 and Mary in 1859. When I last looked at the census, while I still could, there was a correction of the 75 to 25 that made the whole thing look a mess. Only 1 PRIOR/PIKE marriage I know about. Mike
