Rob, Aha!!!! This is what I have been wondering. Are you saying that this church also served the military and that my ancestor was serving in the military at the time of his marriage?

Janet and the list- You haven't told us but I am assuming that one or more of your ancestors appears on the parish records for that church. If so, it is likely that your ancestor was serving in the military but like everything in genealogy, you would need some confirmation of that: military records, family history, etc. Rob Hausman At 03:40 PM 7/20/2007, you wrote: > >Rob, > >Aha!!!!
