(NOTE:  Location of husband's birthplace is unclear.  All other entries on the ledger-style marriage record indicate the 
county and state of birth.  The 1850 Census also lists his birthplace as Indiana.  But since his birthplace is given in 
the 1860 Census as Pennsylvania, it is possible that he was actualy born in Indiana County, Pennsylvania.), MR p. 8,

Event Notes
Note (1) "... Later he was located in Monroe County, Mississippi where he gave
erroneous testimony that he was his father's sole living heir in an abortive
attempt to receive the whole estate."
