From the marriage license documents of Henry Steinmetz in his pension file in the National Archives in Washington D.C. in 1978.  The file designation is:  "Steinmetz, Henry.  Wc 926448.  Co. A, 176 Ohio Infantry." :

			"MARRIAGE LICENSE
                  STATE OF OHIO, FRANKLIN COUNTY,  
To any Person Authorized to Solemnize Marriages in said County:  
           YOU ARE HEREBY AUTHORIZED to solemnize the Marriage Contract 
between MR. HENRY STEINMETZ and MISS ELLEN BARLYEM,   IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I 
have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the Probate Court of said 
County, this 14th day of November, in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Eight 
Hundred and Sixty-six (1866).
JOHN M. PUGH, Judge.   By:  Jno. G. Gale, Dept. Cl. P. C.

                            CERTIFICATE OF MARRIAGE
             This Is To Certify that by authority of a License under the seal 
of the Probate Court of said county, MR. HENRY STEINMETZ and MISS ELLEN 
BARLYEM were, by me, on the 14th day of November, in the year of our Lord 
Eighteen Hundred and Sixty-six legally united as HUSBAND AND WIFE.

Additional Comments:
Henry Steinmetz had to submit a notarized statement for his Civil War pension 
application that someone had looked at his marriage certificate and verified 
that he was married.  He went to the nearest town, where the task was 
accomplished, as follows:  "I, Coke L. Doster, a Notary Public in and for 
Highland County, Ohio, whose post office address is 'Greenfield, Ohio', do 
certify that the above is a true and correct copy of the Marriage License and 
Certificate of Marriage of Henry Steinmetz and Ellen Barlyum.  
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have hereunto subscribed my name and affixed my 
notarial seal on this the 4th day of August, 1922.
Signed / Coke L. Doster, Notary Public, Highland County, Ohio."

After their marriage, Henry and Helen ("Ellen") Steinmetz moved to Lower Twin 
Road in Buckskin Township, Ross County, Ohio, where they lived the rest of 
their lives.  They are buried in the South Salem Cemetery.

From an undated personal note, with errors, signed by Hazel Cokonougher:  "Mr. 
& Mrs. Henry Stymentz was married on Nov. 14, 1866.  Their golden wedden was 
Nov. 16, 1916.  Henry's son Frank was there from Columbus in his auto.  Yours 
lovingly I remain,  Hazel Cokonougher"
