Gaston signed a marriage bond in the amount of $150 for David Prine [sic] and Matilda Gaston. But MR Bk 3, p. 148,
shows that when the minister returned the certificate for the Aug 27 1840 ceremony, the groom's first name was
erroneously entered as Daniel. It is clear, however, that it was David Perine who married Matilda Gaston. MR Bk 3, p.

Informant: Richard Perine (relationship not specified). Previous information had reported her marriage in 1860 to Cain
Nicholas. It is unclear whether Julia remarried a Nicholson, or whether Cain Nicholas was actually Cain Nicholson, or
whether the death record was in error and her name was actually Nicholas. The latter is considered more likely. DR Bk
4, p. 151.
