Marriage Bond of Thomas THOMPSON & Delilah DAVIS

Transcribed from a photocopy of the original, handwritten marriage bond, dated 11 Dec 1815, Christian Co., KY, as received from the Christian County Genealogical Society, Hopkinsville, KY. Unfortunately, the yellowed bond produced too dark a photocopy to make a good scan.

Henry Clark Davis is the bride's brother. John G. Reynolds was the Deputy County Clerk.
