Waterloo County Marriage Register

Extracted from a list of marriages solemnized by Robert Acheson, Minister of the United Presbyterian Church, Galt.

James G. Bailey, 24, born and residing Galt. Parents Eli (Bailey) and Jane Howard.
Isabella Carrick, 24, born and residing Dumfries. Parents Robert (Carrick) and Sarah Fraser.
Witness William Carrick, Dumfries.
On June 14, 1866.

The June 20, 1866, issue of the Dumfries Reformer reads:
Bailey, James G. 14 Jun 1866 Isabella Carrick At Mr. Donald Frazer's, Dumfries, by Rev. Robt. Acheson. Groom of Galt; bride of Dumfries.
20 Jun 1866

This extraction from the Reformer was done by Rosemary Ambrose for the Waterloo Region branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society.

The county marriage registrations usually only locate the marriage in the county. The Dumfries Reformer notice places the marriage at the Donald Fraser farm. Mr. Fraser was Isabella's grandfather.
