  Marriage Notes:

The marriage location was probably in Wisconsin because Phebe is found in the 1850 census living with her parents in Hebron, Jefferson County, Wisconsin. And since William was found in the 1850 census back in Wayne County, Ohio, and their first child was born in 1856 in Wisconsin, it is safe to assume that the marriage was about 1855 in Wisconsin.
