Notes:
~The transcriber does not read German, researchers should do their own translations if they have any questions.
~Some of these marriages may have been recorded in Clayton co. Record of Marriages Book 1 or the Clayton co. Index to Marriage Records, Books 1 & 2 (both are found on this website). The researcher should also consult these records as a cross-reference.
~In the orginal record book, there probably was a matching right-hand page that gives the bride's parents names. Much of this information is included on Ken Johnson's World Connect website: " Families of Garnavillo, Iowa and Vicinity " and on Judy Moyna's World Connect website: " Bender - Moyna Families "
