Title
Jan 19, 1868 Martha Carson Marriage Certificate
Description
This document is a wedding certificate for Martha Carson and Narcisse Lavadour's wedding, which was presided by Justice of the Peace Ransom at the home of Peter Grouslouis and was witnessed by Julius Cardwell and B. Carveal [?]. There is no official mention of either Letitia or Jack being present, and that might be accounted for by design (being present, but purposely not taking part in the formal ceremonies), absence by choice, or by unavoidable circumstances. Fondly shared family experience or avoidance due to family feud? At present, there is no documentation to support either possibility. The document is signed on January 19th, 1868.
