George Caley, Historian of Asbury Methodist Church
George
Caley says: "The following marriages and baptisms have been compiled
from actual church records. We have faithfully tried to copy them exactly
as recorded. Some ministers used last names first, while others used
last names past." 1. The mostly oral recitation of names to
the person recording the information at the time of the wedding. Many
of the names in the list appear to have been phonetically spelled. Note: Mr. Caley, in a phone conversation, October, 1999, told us that there is no copyright on his work, as published here, and he has no objection to the publication of it on this site. We thank him for his work with the difficult-to-interpret handwriting in the old church records and for making it available to us for internet publication. The book, which is primarily a history of Asbury Church (baptisms and marriages are appended in tiny print), is available through the public library, Dover, Delaware. It can be consulted should questions arise about the accuracy of this version. |
