What this document records
Item
Marriage licences issued, as reported by the paper
Note
THIS IS A LICENCE, NOT A MARRIAGE. The column reports licences ISSUED by the county clerk; it does not say the marriage took place, nor when, nor where. What it fixes is that a licence for this couple existed by 20 May 1922. Ancestry's index for this row is AI-extracted - the collection page says so - and it renders the date only as 'Abt 1922' and her surname as 'Neadens', which the image confirms.
Reading notes
Her surname on the page is NEADENS. The catalog has carried 'Niedens' from a Find a Grave family panel [G.603] and 'Kathryn Niedens' from a FamilySearch tree, both contributor assertions. This is the first PRINTED form of her maiden name and it disagrees with both; no reconciliation is asserted here. HER TOWN IS NEW: Bazine, Kansas - in NESS COUNTY, some 100 miles west of Hutchinson - and the catalog has had no place of origin for her at all.
