  Whereabouts of the original bible unknown, perhaps with
  a member of the McMullen or Cook Family of Stirling, ON

  This transcript is taken from five pages of photocopies
  made for me in 1979, by the COOK family of Stirling, who
  had borrowed it from another family member for this purpose.

  Hugh McMULLEN is not my direct line, but was a brother of my
  great, great grandfather Alexander McMULLEN. They were sons of
  Stephen McMULLEN of Scottish origins, who was born about 1796
  in the USA according to the 1861 census of Rawdon Township,
  Hastings County, Ontario. Stephen does not appear in the 1871
  census.

  Dunham - witness only
  McDonnell
  McGowan
  McInroy
  McMullen

  MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE
  This is to certify that
  Mr. Hugh McMULLEN
  and
  Wife Catherine SMITH
  were solemnly united by me in Holy Matrimony
  at Rawdon on the Sixteenth
  day of November in the year of Our Lord
  One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fify [sic] Six
  Conformably to the Ordinance of God and the Laws of
  The Land
  In the Presence of
  Samuel DUNHAM, Charles SEELEY

  [note: the minister's name does not appear on this document;
  there is a copy of a wallet size certificate of marriage for
  the same couple which reads:

  Certificate of Marriage
  I do thereby certify
  That on the Sixteenth day of November in the year of Our Lord
  One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fifty-six

  Township of Rawdon, in the County of Hastings
  and Province of Canada, and Catherine SMITH
  of the same Township in the County of
  Hastings and Province of Ontario, were
            MARRIED
  by me, by authority of Special License in the
  presence of the following Witnesses:--
  Samuel Dunham, Charles Seeley
  Witness my hand at Stirling, this 16th
  ....and the bottom of the card is torn off here....
  so there is no way of knowing the name of the officiating
  minister]
