    •      According to marriage records in Lafayette County, Missouri, William F. Fiegenbaum, of Mayview, Lafayette County, Missouri, and Henriette C. Starkebaum, of Higginsville, Lafayette County, Missouri, received a marriage license at Lexington, Lafayette County, Missouri on 17 October 1893 and they were married at Higginsville, Lafayette County, Missouri on 19 October 1893 by H. F. Hoefer, "a minister of the Gospel."
           A marriage certificate in the family's possession which appears to have been filled out by "H. F. Hoefer, Pastor of Salems [sic] Church, Higginsville, Mo." confirms the documents filed with the county recorder. The certificate further notes that Friederik [sic] Fiegenbaum and Louise Starkebaum were witnesses at the marriage.
           A 'Trauschein' (a German language marriage certificate) issued under H. F. Hoefer's hand on 12 December, 1894 attests to the same details.
           Henriette's obituary in 1960 seems to err in reporting that she was married in 1892.
