I have a marriage date of 3 May 1825 and first child, James W. Miller, born 20 Jul 1826. While that doesn't necessarily mean anything I was pretty sure of the original marriage date. Would they have a "bondsman" for anything else? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
