The microfilm image as it appears on GS2987 is rather faded. The residence for both witnesses is evidently the same and may be Dumfries, but lack of clarity of the image makes this uncertain. Rev. Strang's entries for 1849 in the District Marriage Register only run to early 1849. It may be that the microfilm LCM series at the United Church Archives has a clearer image, but this has not been examined.
