Extracts from Marriage Records: Sorted by Bride

Return to the St. Paul's Evangelical, Columbia Page

The following is a partial extraction of the marriage records of St. Paul's Evangelical in Columbia (source:Family History Library Film # 1006419).

Marriages are listed in alphabetical order, by bride's last name. Esther's direct ancestors are highlighted. The original spelling was retained.

The original records were handwritten in German, and I have done my best to accurately transcribe the information. Note that mistakes due to typographical errors on my part or mistakes within the records themselves are possible. My annotations are in brackets [ ].

Scans of marriage records are linked in the Entry column. Commonly used German terms:
