Microfilm #208459 of the Mormon collection contains marriages from 1785 1898. From 1800 on Mennonite marriages are included. The following are the Mennonite extractions done by Adalbert Goertz and published in Altpreussische Geschlechterkunde (1982; p. 296). I have translated Adalbert transcriptions. My comments and additions are in square brackets [ ] and statements in quotes are taken directly from the microfilm without translation. Unless a person is designated as a widow or widower assume that the person was previously unmarried.
