FamilySearch's index to the Ontario civil marriage registrations. Ontario civil registration of marriages begins in 1869, so this collection cannot reach a marriage earlier than that. Distinct from the Ancestry products already in this tree (sources 1156 and 1220), which index the same underlying registers.

Full marriage registration image viewed (existing source 1568, previously cited elsewhere in this tree). Upgrades/supersedes the vague GEDCOM-import citation (source 1156, citation ids 3206/3207/34593, raw text "Record for Alfred F Richardson" with no page or locator) already on this couple — that thin citation is left in place but a moderator may wish to remove it once this is approved. Confirms both spouses' parents exactly as already recorded in the tree.
Field values quoted in the record page's own order: name, sex, age, estimated birth year, event type, event date, event place, event place (original), source details, then the indexed parents and spouse. Supports the existing 21 AUG 1879 marriage date. FamilySearch film 1863654.

FamilySearch index record, read in Chrome by the orchestrator 2026-09-17. Upgrades the marriage evidence (previously two legacy Ancestry GEDCOM free-text citations) with a directly quoted primary index entry, and independently corroborates John's parents (Stephen Bromley Jarvis Ferguson #3059 & Jane Richardson #6451) and Rebecca's parents (Samuel Scobie #6843 & Helen Miller #5456), all already recorded in the tree.
Field values quoted in the record page's own order: name, sex, age, estimated birth year, event type, event date, event place, event place (original), then the indexed parents and spouse. Supports the existing 20 DEC 1870 marriage date. The tree's place for this marriage is the county-level row #702 'Carleton, Ontario, Canada'; the record says Ottawa, which is inside Carleton County, so the two are compatible and the place is unchanged.

FamilySearch index record, read in Chrome by the orchestrator 2026-09-17; no marriage date indexed on this row (the tree's 7 MAR 1906 rests on other GEDCOM sources and is unaffected). Confirms Jane Ferguson #3024 (recorded aka 'Jennie'; parents John Ferguson #3028 & Rebecca Scobie #6836, matching the tree) and names her groom Wm Hugh Stinson's parents, matching the tree's William S Stinson #7454 and Anna Jane Powell #6323 (indexed as 'Jane Powell') — no new persons needed, citation only.
Field values quoted in the record page's own order: name, sex, age, estimated birth year, event type, event date, event place, event place (original), source details, then the indexed parents and spouse. Date, place and implied birth year all agree with what the tree already holds.

Alfred Richardson, male, age 22 years (birth year estimated 1885); and Gertrude Clemens, female, age 23 years (birth year estimated 1884); Event Type Marriage; Event Date 1 January 1907; Event Place Lambton Mills, York, York, Ontario, Canada; Event Place (Original) Wilsoncroft, Lambton, Ontario, Canada. Groom's parents: John Richardson and Jane Early. Bride's parents (father-in-law/mother-in-law): Emery Clemens and Catherine German.
FamilySearch index of an Ontario civil marriage register (register image viewed; handwriting not independently legible at available resolution, so the indexed fields are relied on rather than a personal transcription). The place is indexed inconsistently — 'Lambton Mills, York, York, Ontario' does not match the original 'Wilsoncroft, Lambton, Ontario' — and Wilsoncroft is a locality in Lambton County near Bosanquet Township, where the bride's family is already documented (Find A Grave), so this citation is attached to the existing Bosanquet place record rather than the mismatched standardised one. The groom's mother's name, Jane Early, explains 'Early' as Alfred's own middle name. The bride's parents' names match, in shortened form, the fuller names and dates 'Nathon Emery Clemens (1859-1913)' and 'Catherine Ann German Clemens (1861-1937)' already cited to Minnie's Find A Grave memorial.
