"That we John Gibson Goza & A. S. Shriek are held and firmly bound unto the State of Mississippi [Claiborne Co.] in the openal sum of Two Hundred Dollars..."
This was the Marriage Bond of John Gibson Goza & Mary A. Austin dated 20 Aug 1866. Goza & Austin married 25 Aug 1866.
Question:
What was the connection [family/or other] between John Gibson Goza and A. [Ambrose] S. Shriek?
Or, between Mary A. Austin's family & A. S. Shriek?
Thanks
