The source page shows Nova Scotia births, by child, with parents' information, including the marriage year of the parents.

However, the transcript/extraction below lists the events as marriages, not births. While the marriage YEARS (and places) are shown in the source page, the COMPLETE dates given are for births, not marriages.

I don't know how these transcripts are made, but if this were a spreadsheet, I'd say the column headers are wrong and/or some categories are automatically entered.

The error has resulted in some wild conclusions.
