Oops! I found everybody. They were all where they were supposed to be, except I forgot. Mary S. was the teenage wife of one of cousin Edwin Powers' sons. (Edwin was a cousin of my John G. Powers).

I also solved my census problem for 1860. That was just another careless mistake on my part. So, anyway, it doesn't matter what "Sur."

Thank you for the suggestions regarding the "Sur." at the wedding. From the list and from other sources, it seems like the two leading interpretations are "surety" and "surrogate." I imagine a "surety" guaranteed the debts of the young couple, while a "surrogate" was a stand-in for someone else, like maybe giving permission on behalf of a parent. All that is just a guess, so far, of course. The marriage record of W.F. Smith and Mary S. Powers at Lane Co. in 1874 features "Sur. John G. Powers,"
