      Identified as Norman M. Laughery, 36, b. Harrison Co, res. Doddridge Co; and Martha Johnson, 24, b. & res. in Doddridge Co. Marriage license issued on Oct 13 1896, but there was no Minister's Return or Endorsement to show that a wedding took place. It is noted, however, that the 1900 Census, which shows them living together with their children, indicates that they had been married for four years.
