This is to certify that it appears from the Records of this office, that on
this day, to wit: the 1st of February, 1893 in the year of our Lord, one
thousand eight hundred and ninety three and the one hundredth and sixteenth
of the Independence of the United States of America (February 1, 1893) was
registered a marriage, celebrated in the City of New Orleans, La., by Rev.
Father J. A. (can't make it out) on the 25th day of January 1893 between John
P. Spellman (no age given) a native of Louisiana, son of Michael Spellman and
Julia Nolan and Miss Carrie (Caroline) Peterson (no age given) a native of
Louisiana, daughter of Martin Peterson and Mary Roach.  The celebration of
the marriage was performed in the presence of the witnesses Hannah Waldo,
Maggie S. Shaw, and John M. Shaw.  The License was issued on the 23rd day of
January 1893 by Hon. P. H. Lanauze, Judge.

**25th Anniversay write up says that they were married by Carrie's cousin,
Bishop John Shaw, but the name on the certificate looks nothing like Shaw and
has too many letters.
