  Notes	In their 1921 civil marriage record, James Ernest SLAUENWHITE states that he is a bachelor and Hattie Irene SLAUENWHITE states that she is a spinster. However, from the obits of various children, there is no mistaking the fact that at least three of their children were born before 1921. I had thought that, as sometimes happened, this might be a case where they were remarried in the Catholic Church after having previously married in an Anglican ceremony; but both parties and their families were Catholic, and there is no record of a previous marriage ceremony.
