I am in need of someone who has practice at reading the really old handwriting AND has access to the Index of Marriage Book BB. I really would like to copy this old book but keep bypassing it because it is all handwritten. I'll be honest I have a difficult time at best trying to decipher some of that old writting. If there is someone that could help I would be forever grateful. I'm not sure when I can go and copy it but sometime in the next few weeks. My main point is the Book BB and book C (I believe) are copies of one another. Someone copied book BB and put it into book C but I think they may have transcribed some of the information incorrectly. That is just my opinion but until we have it on-line for all to see we don't really know. Any takers???? If I had to guess I would say there is probably a couple hundred marriage records there. Also this book has been laminated so I'm not entirely sure a photograph would even turn out I would just like to give it a try.

Hi Cassy! Since you seem to have lots of eager typists for the early marriage books, what else is there to transcribe? Do you still have copies of the school censuses that need to be transcribed? Pat Hobson
