The following database was transcribed from Book number one. It starts in February of 1908 and ends in December of 1927. The second book starts where the first one left off. We stopped with the date of 1927 so as not to infringe upon anyone's privacy. There is the human error margin, some had the same bride/groom names, but we tried to cross reference these and correct.

Note: For further information, parents' names, etc., go to Parents' Names
