Notes: Marriage (Harry Curtis Hodges):

The original of the marriage certificate was issued in Wentworth on either Mar. 21, 1945 or Mar. 2, 1945. The owner transcriber indicated it was Mar. 2, and apparently the digit following the two was interpreted as a comma, but to me it is much too large and is therefore a 1, for Mar. 21. The portion of the marriage date can't be read, so I used Mar 21 as the marriage date, but it could be later. That close to Wentworth, it was probably the same day.
