Title: Garrett Chichester m. Catherine Couchman
Post by: LemonChichester on Tuesday 06 April 10 04:14 BST (UK)
Not sure of Marriage date however, they had a son born 5/14/1886 or 1887 named Austin Turner Chichester who married Elizabeth Vaughn on 6/12/1888.  I figure the marriage had to be around there.   Primary residence was Schoharie County, NY
Any information is welcome and appreciated.
Oh and also any information like bmd and any other siblings or family would be great

The date of death for Catherine 28 Jun 1904 in Broome, New York.

It also names another child:- Emalet Chichester born 13 Sep 1862
