Thanks! I had no idea that family search had images of these records.
Much appreciated! I'll go take some advil, and then try to read them,
without getting a headache. : )- Mark

If a maiden name appeared in the handwritten index, it then also appeared in the online database. By going to the original record on Family Search, you'll be able to find a maiden name - if it also appears in the actual marriage record. For sure, there will be more details in the record than in the index.
