The marriage contract, called a ketubah, is in Aramaic. Ketubot (plural) are fairly standardized and usually read like this:

Early entries span two pages and include the date of the wedding, the names of the bride and groom, and other information such as occupation, parents' names, birthplace, residence, and names of witnesses. Later entries are more abbreviated, often including only the date and names of bride and groom.

Alphabetical indexes appear within the text for dates from 1799 to 1811. Indexes for other years appear at the back of the book.

"Remarkable occurrences" are noted on images 175 to 190 and again on images 364 to 367, and include descriptions of couples who were refused marriage and the reasons for this refusal, including, for example, lack of necessary paperwork or witnesses, a young bride with no adult guardian present, or a very drunken bridegroom.]]> Manuscripts]]> Registers (Lists)]]> ]]> St. Paul's Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> St. Paul's Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Marriage records]]> Church records and registers]]> Episcopalians]]> Episcopal Church]]> Registers (Lists)]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> First Baptist Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> First Baptist Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Church records and registers]]> Marriage records]]> Baptists]]> Church finance]]>
It appears the manuscript was used as a financial journal prior to use as a marriage register; financial entries date from 1744 to 1760, but are crossed out, and pages are reused to record marriages. There is an alphabetical index of names at the beginning of the book.

The date ranges are out of order, marriages from 1761 beginning on p. 15, continuing to p. 270, whereupon the reader is directed back to p. 2 for the continuation of marriage records from Rev. William Rogers. Meanwhile, records of Rev. Henry Holcombe from 1813 start on p. 270 and continue through 1824 on p. 313.

A note on the inside front cover from Rector B. Dorr adds to the record five marriages from 1836 and one from 1839, which were recorded in a private record but left out of previous official registers.

(This register contains records dating up to 1979, but was only scanned through 1870, per the terms of grant funding.)]]> Manuscripts]]> Registers (Lists)]]> ]]> St. Joseph's Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> St. Joseph's Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Church records and registers]]> Marriage records]]> Manuscripts]]> Registers (Lists)]]> ]]> Congregation Mikveh Israel (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Congregation Mikveh Israel (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Marriage records]]> Registers of births, etc.]]> Jews]]> Synagogues]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> First Moravian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> First Moravian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Moravian Church]]> Moravians]]> Church membership]]> Registers of births, etc.]]> Manuscripts]]> Registers (Lists)]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Genealogy]]> Society of Friends]]> Quakers]]> Records (Documents)]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia for the Southern District]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia for the Southern District]]> Society of Friends--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Quakers--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Philadelphia (Pa.)--Genealogy]]> Quaker women]]> Church membership]]> Women and religion]]> Records (Documents)]]> Manuscripts]]> Registers (Lists)]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia for the Southern District]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia for the Southern District]]> Society of Friends--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Quakers--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Philadelphia (Pa.)--Genealogy]]> Quaker women]]> Church membership]]> Women and religion]]> Records (Documents)]]> Manuscripts]]> Registers (Lists)]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia for the Western District]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia for the Western District]]> Society of Friends--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Quakers--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Philadelphia (Pa.)--Genealogy]]> Quaker women]]> Church membership]]> Women and religion]]> Records (Documents)]]> Manuscripts]]> Registers (Lists)]]> ]]> First Moravian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> First Moravian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Moravian Church]]> Moravians]]> Church membership]]> Registers of births, etc.]]> Baptismal records]]> Marriage records]]> Immigrants]]> Church records and registers]]>

The memorandum describes an April 18, 1809 trip by Thomas Cumpston, Samuel Wheeler, and Peter Dehaven to Lower Merion Township to settle a lost $200 bond with Samuel Dehaven, which had originally been given to Paul Webb. It also details their subsequent trip to Norristown to officially record the satisfaction of a loan to Jesse Roberts and the hiring of a lawyer named Mr. Pawling to handle Paul Webb's estate.]]>
The group then continued to Norristown, where they entered satisfaction at the Recorder's Office for money that Paul Webb had lent to Jesse Roberts. Although the money had been repaid before Webb's death, Webb had never acknowledged its receipt in the Recorder's Office, making it necessary for his executors to complete the record. The remaining collection of moneys and other matters concerning Paul Webb's estate were left in the care of Mr. Pawling, a lawyer, who agreed to render an account when called upon [p.1r].]]> Manuscripts]]> Records (Documents)]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Genealogy]]> Society of Friends]]> Quakers]]> Minutes (Records)]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> First Moravian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> First Moravian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Moravian Church]]> Moravians]]> Corporate minutes]]> Church meetings]]> Elders (Church officers)]]> Church discipline]]> Conflict management]]> Church finance]]> Church management]]> Love feasts]]> Baptism]]> Church buildings]]> Church schools]]> Church membership]]> Manuscripts]]> Minutes (Records)]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Genealogy]]> Society of Friends]]> Quakers]]> Minutes (Records)]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Genealogy]]> Society of Friends]]> Quakers]]> Minutes (Records)]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia]]> Genealogy]]> Society of Friends]]> Quakers]]> Minutes (Records)]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> St. George's Methodist Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Church finance]]> St. George's Methodist Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Corporate minutes]]> Church management]]> Church buildings]]> Church committees]]> Church discipline]]> Church fund raising]]> Church records and registers]]> Methodists]]> Charity]]> Poor]]> Methodist Church]]> Minutes (Records)]]> Manuscripts]]> ]]> Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends]]> Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends]]> Society of Friends--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Quakers--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Philadelphia (Pa.)--Genealogy]]> Corporate minutes]]> Correspondence]]> Church committees]]> Church discipline]]> Church finance]]> Church management]]> Church membership]]> Religious education]]> Temperance]]> Poor]]> Charity]]> African Americans]]> Antislavery movements]]> Religious literature]]> Persecution]]> Records (Documents)]]> Manuscripts]]> Minutes (Records)]]> ]]> Yearly Meeting of Women Friends (Philadelphia]]> Pa.)]]> Yearly Meeting of Women Friends (Philadelphia, Pa.)]]> Society of Friends--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Quakers--Pennsylvania--Philadelphia]]> Philadelphia (Pa.)--Genealogy]]> Quaker women]]> Women and religion]]> Corporate minutes]]> Indians of North America]]> African Americans]]> Temperance]]> Religious education]]> Correspondence]]> Church committees]]> Church discipline]]> Church finance]]> Church fund raising]]> Persecution]]> Poor]]> Charity]]> Records (Documents)]]> Manuscripts]]> Minutes (Records)]]> ]]> Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends.
