Arthur C.M. Kelly transcribed and published those records in 1986. 4.20.1831 Henry B. Holmes md. Harriet Butler Kelly gives each mg. an Item Number. This one was 1305. >From your information, it appears that they weren't married in the church itself. It might have occurred in the home of the bride's parents (not unusual) or that of a relative, which could also have been her own home. The church records did not mention the actual location of marriages. Jacob Sickles was the minister of that church from 1801-1835. This couple did not have any children baptized in the church. Nor were any baptized at the Columbia Co. Reformed churches of Claverack, Germantown, Ghent or Linlithgo (in Livingston), not the one in Coxsackie, Albany Co., NY.
