While we are on the subject of marriages registered in counties other than the home county of the couple, does anyone know why marriages are registered in more than one county? The marriage of my Williams GG-grandparents was listed in both Calloway Co., KY, where they lived, and in Stewart Co., TN. The marriage of his brother was registered in Calloway Co. and Caldwell Co., KY. Could this multiple registration have something to do with land ownership and dower rights of the woman? Ed Wells
