MARKS, Simon - of this parish (minor son of dec. Baltasar - native of the Mississippi & dec. Catherine MILLER - native of America) m. 1 Feb. 1814 Marie Jeane STELLY - native of this parish (minor daughter of dec. Jean Baptiste CHETELY - native of the Mississippi & Magdelaine RAYTER [RITTER] - native of America and inhabitant of this parish) Wits: Magdelaine RITTER widow CHETETI [STELLY] & mother of the bride, Jean Baptiste CHETELY, Michel CHETELI - brothers of the bride and all of major age, Benjamin SMITH, Nicolas PRATHER, David GRAY, Elias STEEN - all of this parish & Henry Alexandre Peter COMTESSE, William Henry HERGEROEDER. Marginal note by Fr. BARRIERE: All the STELI or ESTELI or other similar names are all the same family in this parish. I've written it CHETELY since these families, being German, pronounce their own name as CHETELY and not ESTELY. Fr. Michel Bernard BARRIERE (Opel. Ch.: v.1-A, p.248) ^[1]
