marriage records

Garcia, Jenny Ruth

On the marriage records I am indexing, for the parents names I only get initials such as P. J. or L. M. How do I index the surname?

I have run into a similar question as I've started indexing: US, Virginia—Marriage Records, 1853–1935[M3WJ-M6L] . What it is looking like to me is that they tried to squeeze in both parents into one entry for both the husband and the spouse. So for example, the for the husband in the first line it says: F. G. Elizabeth Ketron and the names of the parents for the wife are: Geo. Rosa Burke. Would I index them separate like 1st parent: F. G. Ketron and 2nd parent Elizabeth Ketron, even though it doesn't specify when one parent ends and the next one starts?

Now that I'm looking a little more closely, I can see they have squeezed a little and sign in there. So I will go ahead and index them separately.

Yes, we have looked into the image and there is a & (ampersand) between Geo and Rosa Burke. I can also see one squeezed in between F G and Elizabeth. They would be separate individuals and indexed separately.
