The Wilkes Register of deeds told me they have a book that has witnesses and bondman for the older marriages. I wrote away to the archives because one is older and I need to see the actual bond. It has been transcribed 2 different ways.Just because they have a transcribed book doesn't mean it is correct. My cousin has the bond book for Wilkes, I have a different marriage book than her and we go back an forth with comparing with ancestry.com's transcriptions. Some of them are different from each other, so which is correct???? I already have the dates for the newer marriages with witnesses but I would still like to see the original if possible.

Hi Kathy The problem I have is some of my family was buried on their property and hard to read the stones. The tomb stones cant help me with what I need. I have 2 Mary Elizabeth Riddle's born at the same time. One to Samuel Riddle and one to Debby Riddle. Samuel and Debby were brother and sister. My ancestor married one of the Mary Riddles. I was told it was Debby and she signed the Marriage bond She has been transribed on that bond as Debury Riddle. Ancestry's transcription does not have Debury on their version of the marriage bond. I sent away for a copy of that bond to see if Debury is on it or not.I have other delemas like this and need to see court records. I have some of the church records on my family but most of them were kicked out of 3 different churches for bad behavior and did not attend church anymore. The newer graves I can contact Mr Neil for if they weren't buried on family property bening that many of them wern't church goers.
