in said County and Territory, I, the undersigned, a Justice of the Peace, did join in the |
Holy Bonds of Matrimony in accordance with the laws of the Territory of New Mexico, |
and the authorization of the foregoing license, |
J. D. McAninch of Carlsbad, New Mexico, and Lizzie McDonald of Carlsbad, New Mexico. |
[signed] N. Cunningham, Justice of the Peace, Precinct No. 1, Eddy Co., N.M. |

Handwriting information -- |
|
1. earliest entries are written in “handwriting one”, and this “handwriting one” only |
appears in the first Bible (there are no “handwriting one” entries in the second Bible) |
1. a. characteristics: |
distinctive “hooked” crossed-’t’s (look like ‘4’s); “County” or “Cty”, not “Co.” |
1. b. could these entries have been written by Sarah J. (McDaniel) McAninch herself? |
|
2. the next entries are written in “handwriting two”, which appears in both Bibles; |
believe this is John D. McAninch himself, who can be identified from his signature |
on the 1905 Marriage Certificate |
2. a. characteristics: |
leading high-scroll on capital ‘M’s, especially McAninch; abbreviation “Co.” |
2. b. not Lizzie (McDonald) McAninch, handwriting two is nothing like her signature |
on the 1905 Marriage Certificate |
|
3. the last entries, hand-printed, have been identified by David McAninch as the work |
of his father, Roy D. McAninch; David wrote “All of the modern printing was by my |
father, Roy. He was a geologist and printed on a lot of maps” |
