Family bible: Marriage certificate:

WHAT  GOD HATH JOINED TOGETHER LET NOT MAN PUT ASUNDER.  This certifies that the right of Holy Matrimony was celebrated between Martin Peters of Bradford Township, Clearfield CO., Pa. and Miss Nancy E. Appleton of the same place on the 9th of July 1865 at Bradford Township by Rev. John H. Nummer, Pastor of the E. Lutheran Church.

Then there is a page titled "Marriages" with two entries both of which looked like they were marked out by a black marker and both said the same thing of: "Mr. Martin Peters Nancy Appleton was 9th of July 1865"
