I am working on a FamilySearch Indexing (www.familysearchindexing.org) project to index Indiana Marriages (http://www.familysearchindexing.org/en/projects/Indiana_Marr...).

I am working on Huntington County, Indiana page 80 and have encountered problems with two entries. I realize the project title says 1870-1905, but these entries appear to be for 1850 (actually using sheets printed for 1840).

One entry lists a groom as (most likely Jesse) Mayer, bride as Margaret Malinda Ketner or Kitner, license date of 16 Feb 1850, and wedding date of 17 Feb 1850. The official's surname is likely Browne or Brown, but the given name is difficult to discern.

The next entry lists a bride as Mary (or May) Ann Ketner or Kitner. The groom is listed as William, but the surname is very difficult to discern. The first two spellings (by the clerk?) suggest that the first letter is a J, L or T with the remainder being something like "onard" or "inard". The third spelling (by the pastor or JP) suggest that the first letter might be a D with the remainder possibly being "inard". The license and wedding dates are the same as the first entry. The official could be the same as that for the first entry and may be John R? Brown.

Does anyone know of these Ketners or Kitners? Does anyone know the real name of their grooms?
