      Identified as Herbert Ray Lemasters, 27, b. Doddridge Co, res. Parkersburg; and Elsie Sutton, 20, b. & res. in Doddridge Co. Married Sep 28 1927 in Parkersburg. (Note: "Davis - The Settlers of Salem WV," p. 268, incorrectly reports marriage date as Nov 28 1927. Although the marriage ceremony was held in Wood County, the license was issued and the marriage recorded in Doddridge County, residence of the bride.)
