I can't even begin to thank Len enough for all the contributions he has made in the form of records for this list. In this latest batch, I count more than a dozen marriages that are either in my family lines (Fulton, Somerville, McFarland and more), or possible collateral relatives. Had I not been researching for many years, these would have been a bonanza. As it is, I still have much more to investigate and possibly explain the many DNA matches we have found with "cousins" from Tyrone.
I am curious if anyone knows the reason for the same witnesses at many marriages-e.g. Bates and Robb? Would these be church officials who stood in as witnesses when a family member was not available? Thanks again, Len!
