Rowan Co. marriage book 6, p. 439, records marriage on 17 Sep 1908 of Elishia B. Tolliver, 21, s/o R. W. Tolliver (b. N.C.) and Pina Wilson (b. Elliott Co.) to Nettie M. Hall, 23, d/o Ben & Clemma Hall, at Clemma Hall's by Wesley Cox, witnesses Clemmie Hall & Clarence Hall. (Elisha's mother had probably remarried, since she is listed as Piety Adkins on her own marriage record in book A, and in all early Rowan Co. marriage books, mothers of the bridal couple are listed under their married names, not their maiden names.)
Elisha and Nettie were first cousins, Elisha's father and Nettie's mother being brother and sister. |
