Marriage Notes
2-13-2002

Received a copy of Philip and Eva's marriage certificate from Jimmy Moser. It was in the papers of Otillia Moser when she passed away.

Says it was registered at Medicine Hat, but it would appear that they were living and married in Irvine. The right and left sides of the certificate are cut off, so I will have to fill in later when I get the rest.
