  Father	William M. CORKUM,   b. 6 May 1844, Corkum's Island, Lunenburg, NS d. 5 Apr 1926, Lunenburg, Lunenburg, NS (Age 81 years)
  Mother	Matilda Clarissa MOSHER,   b. 7 Jul 1850, Corkum's Island, Lunenburg, NS d. 28 Sep 1902, Lunenburg, Lunenburg, NS (Age 52 years)
  Marriage	7 Mar 1874	Corkum's Island, Lunenburg, NS   [4]
  	Their marriage record identifies their parents as J. & Catherine CORKUM and William & Sophia MOSHER. However, William Corkum's brother, Albert, marries Matilda's sister, Emma. Further, in the 1881 Census, William and Albert live side by side and two doors away from Benjamin and Louisa MOSHER, parents of Matilda and Emma MOSHER, all on Corkum's Island. So, I supect that the recording clerk mis-copied the marriage return slip.
