John Fred Ostrum (my father) maried Violet Barr (My mother). July 4, 1918
Clint Ostrum (brother of Fred) married Belle Barr (sister of Violet) - July 23, 1908

Clint and Belle's children, Selburn (Sub) Ostrum and Mildred (Midge Ostrum) Rice I have always referred to as my "Double Cousins"."

Kenny:
Thanks for the response. That looks like double-cousins to me. I guess it's not so rare after all. However, I was looking for marriages from the 1800's.

Further Hint: Answer can be found in Beer's History & Biography but that work does not use the terms
"double cousins"

Keep digging Folks!
