There are two marriages for Mercy and Anthony, and both have original handwritten images attached to them, so they are both documented. One marriage was in 1872 and one in 1882.

There is a marriage announcement in the paper in 1882, but they are also listed in the 1880 census as married. The marriage announcement refers to her as Mrs. Mercy Barstow. This is kinda strange.
