Hi Mrs. Miller, Thank you very much for that suggestion and the reply back. At this point, anything is possible. With this early of a time frame(1848-50), I have been leaning towards them having being married en route from Roane/Meigs Co. of East TN to Cedar Co. MO...perhaps by a traveling preacher. I guess they could still have been married in Cedar Co. and were missed...not sure. Their first child was born near Concord, Lynn Twsp., Cedar Co. MO in Jan. 1850. Have to keep diggin' to see if I can find anything there records wise. Again...many thanks for the suggestion and God Bless, Chris.
