Below is the transcription of the marriage record you posted, shortened.
MARRIAGE
Greenfield [Monroe County], Wisconsin
Date of Registration: May 6, 1863
Husband: David Lowe
Father: Wm Lowe
Mother: Mary Lowe
Residence of husband: Jefferson County, Ohio
I wonder why it says David's residence is Jefferson County, Ohio? At this time he was enlisted in the Union Army, and his Wisconsin infantry unit was attached to an Ohio force, is that right? Maybe that is why his "residence" is Jefferson County, Ohio. But it is an odd coincidence that the possible marriage of his parents is in Jefferson County, Ohio. Maybe the intended meaning is that Jefferson County, Ohio, is his birthplace?
Not a related thought, but this might be a website worth investigating:
