Terri, I appreciate and will take your advice and put the notations in the Source Detail comments. I especially appreciate your mentioning that you have seen pages filmed twice. I noticed items that were clearly one thing in the image different on the printout. Charles E. being Charles C. comes to mind. Nevertheless I appreciate the time and work to have these records available. I find the only person that doesn't make a mistake is the one that isn't doing anything.

I would also to note the volume and page number in the original record. Apparently the record was filmed twice. I've noticed that in other LDS microfilm. Sometimes they filmed pages twice and sometimes they missed pages completely.

This is a page from the Oakland County Michigan Marriage Register. The printout in the same except the grooms age, birth year image number and Reference number. The first printout has Groom age 24 years; Groom birth year 1849; Image number 15; Reference number v. 1 p34 rn 1650. The second printout has Groom age 25 years; Groom birth year 1848; Image number 624; reference number v. 2 p34 rn 1650 The first image clearly has the groom's age 24. The second image is exactly the same as the first one except the right hand sheet overlaps the left hand sheet making the age appear to be 25. No where on either image does it give a birth year for the groom. Both entries are on lines 10, 11 & 12. The notations are the same at the bottom and top of both images. A family member went to the Oakland County courthouse and looked at the entry. The grooms age is 24, however they said it was on page 117 of book i. The images do not have a page number written on them, there is a stamped 34. There is no explanation on the FamilySearch Labs printouts as to why there are two entries. I thought about having one source with notes explaining the two entries and why I think the age 24 printout is correct, also that FamilySearch Labs offers no explanation why there are two entries. I would appreciate ideas on how you would source this type of situation. Thank you, Ann New Mexico, USA ** $10 OFF when you spend $50 or more in our store.
