Help translating record please
Hello,
This record is from Minden, Westphalia, Prussia, Germany.
I need help with Number 12. It is the wedding of Sophie Charlotte Jürgens and Heinrich Werdehoff.
I understand the column headings (after 2 hours of research) :).
I know he emigrated to South Carolina ~ 1830, and came back to Germany when his mother was ill and met and married in 1842.
