Wesleyan Methodist. Born (?) and residing Waterloo Twp. Parents Abraham and Lucinda Masters. Witnesses George Clemens, Waterloo Twp., and Mary Harris, Hespeler. On March 22, 1871, at Waterloo Twp., by William Williams, N.C. Methodist Minister. The mother of the groom's name is ill written on the registration. At first glance it was thought to be Susannah, but a closer examination of family names as they appear in varied transcriptions and histories - Ezra Eby's Waterloo Township biographies for one - the given name Lophamah does have currency and so it is shown as such here. The evidence isn't perfect, but this appears to be correct. |
