      Identified as Thomas M. Griffin, widowed, 44, b. Doddridge Co, res. Ritchie Co, farmer; and Bettie C. Cox, single, 38, b. Gilmer Co, res. Ritchie Co. Married June 18, 1899 in Ritchie County, officiated by A. J. Robinson.
      NOTE: Wife's Gilmer County birthplace is questionable. Her family was in the Harrison County census just a few months before her birth, and she was with her family there in 1870. Her middle initial appears as "S" in all other records.
