Researchers Note: It would appear that the marriages are not contemporary entries in the Bible as they are entered out of chronological order, in at least one instance the year is incorrect (Comer Baggett and Sallie Elliott were married in 1913), and the specific dates are missing in all but Jennie Baggett's entry. It is likely that she hurriedly brought the Bible up to date from memory before it was to be copied. Myrtle Frey and Myrtle Baggett are the same indiviual; she married her brother-in-law after the death of her first husband. Full names provided by Edward Carter.
