Monroe, Portlandville, NY Town Clerk. [The body of the document contains the same infor- mation as given in #1 above, the Affadavit.] 3] Marriage Certificate - [filled out and filed by the Clergy or Magistrate] Recorded, July 31, 1924, Otsego Co. Clerk's Office, No. 5840 I, William E. Elwood, a Minister of the Gospel, residing at Main St., in the village of Unadilla in the county of Otsego....dohereby certify that I did on this 18 day of June 1924 at Unadilla, in the county of Otsego....solemnize the rites of matrimony between Stephen GilbertSweet of Milford in the county of Otsego....and Helen Southworth Wright of Milford....in the presence of Reka de Bloom and Harold Sweet as witness... [Harold was Stephen's brother. I do not know who the Minister was, ie., what denomination (poss. Methodist or Presbyterian) or if they married in a church or in the Minister's 'parlor'(likely), as the certificate is not that specific. I do not know who Reka de Bloomwas, but she must have been one of Grandma's friends whom she brought asher witness/bridesmaid. I wonder if she could be in any of those photos from Grandma's girlhood, or if it would be possible to track the de Bloom family down to see if they have any photos to compare.I also wonder if Grandma's parents approved of her marriage. - d. sweet]
