Unexplainably, the marriage date, entered by the performing minister is Apr. 17, 1952 (clearly written), just as clearly is the marriage license date, at the top, of Apr. 15, 1954. On a transition year for a January date, years are sometimes erroneously entered, but this is mid-year, and 2-years difference. The NC Marriage Register clearly shows the same mm/dd, and 1954.
