I've gotten information from the CR Archives for both my maternal and paternal grandparents, and have pulled out a copy of my parent's marriage certificate so I can document these sources accurately.

Hello Mary Ann,

I'll get the ball rolling.

The above are not German...it's Latin.

Tom. is abbreviation for tomus which is volume.

fol. is abbreviation for folium, which is page.
