      Identified as William Ash, 36, b. Ritchie Co, res. Pullman; and Opal Hopkins, 27, b. Wood Co, res. Waverly. Married Jun 11 1922 "at The Bride's Home in Pleasants Co W. Va." Ceremony performed by F. O Martin, minister of the Church of Christ in St. Marys, W. Va. (Note: Location is unclear, as the bride is first said to reside in Waverly (Wood County), but then the location is said to be at her home in Pleasants County. The latter entry could have been in error, as the minister's church is in St. Marys, which is in Pleasants County.)
