Marriage Certificate of Caspar Faulring and Barbara Förster
March 1, 1868 - St. Pauls Evangelical Reform Church
Boston, Erie County, New York
The Marriage Certificate displayed above is from St. Paul's Evangelical Reform Church in Boston, Erie County, New York. The certificate is written in German, as expected. Though somewhat difficult to read, it provides valuable information about the family.
In the lines below the name of the bride and groom are the place of their birth; Mochenbrunn [Moggenbrunn], Saxony Coburg-Gotha for Casper and Schneiderhof, Kingdom of Bohemia for Barbara. This allowed us to locate their place of origin and, in the case of Casper, to learn more about his ancestors. Note also that the witnesses listed near the bottom are: Friedrich Faulring, Anna Margaretha Faulring, nee Zapf and Johann Faulring, Caspar's brother.
