BlackProGen LIVE! Ep 104: Jumping the Broom: Researching Marriages and Unions 

John Prout is the husband of my 2x great Aunt Fanny Kellum! That tidbit of information was much appreciated

I'm researching the Ingram's of Denison, Texas. I'm pretty familiar with and confident that these Ingram brothers are the only African-American Ingram's in that county at that specific eight or nine years in history. In 1878, 'Mollie Cole' would have been around 13 years old based on census records. She and Alfred Ingram got married in the 1870s and then moved up into Indian Territory along with all of his living brothers. In 1878 there is an Alfred Ingram who married a "Rose Ann Cole." How on earth did they get Rose Ann from Mollie? I'm thinking she had to lie about it because she was so extremely young but there is no other record to back up anything or provide a theory. I'm 99% sure this is the Alfred and Mollie I'm researching but... Rose Ann?

I have a Freedmens Marriage Register for my great great grandparents. Underneath the clerk's name is another person with the initials DC following their name. Does anybody know what that stands for?
