George Bechtel and Sarah Stretchberry Marriage Bond - 1801

The marriage bond is found below the permission slip which shows Sarah's father gave consent for the marriage.

Robert Stretchberry appeared in all later records as Robert Stokesberry. William Stretchberry apparently kept the Stretchberry spelling. Note all bonds signed by Stretchberrys were signed with a mark. This may explain the confused spelling of the family name.
