Shirley, I am sure you have this information too, but just in case - the Montgomery Marriage Book that I have shows that Sarah Clark married Samuel Suter on January 15, 1852. Here again, as with the census, it is not necessarily all the information that is shown in the marriage record. Sometimes the original marriage record will show the name of the bondsman or security, name of minister or justice of the peace, church, etc. Not always shown, but sometimes is, and this information may or may not be helpful to you. All of these books we have available to us are good, but there is nothing better than looking at the original records or a microfilm of them for the most complete and accurate information. Deanna

Deanna, thanks. I have seen the marriage licience and her names looks like it could me Clark or Clarke. Another thing to add to the hunt. I do have all their childrens names on down to my generation. She has been a brick wall for me. She is a very stern lookin indian woman.
