Thanks for the information for James O. Belden and Margaret Swiggett, you confirmed the marriage date I had (July 1, 1857). In case anyone else is looking there are quite a few Belden who settled in Casey County. James' father (John) and his uncle James settled in Casey County about 1820. As evidenced in the visitor register of my grandfather's funeral in Casey County - there still remain quite a few Beldens. Leah McGee
