Marriage between Louis A. Wollenweber & Philapena Voehringer

Our genealogy society had a meeting this month at the Concord Family History Center.  Actually, we call it a workshop, so members can use the computers, books, and microfilms after the center has closed.  I let other members have access to the computers and checked out the binder listing all of the microfilm records the center had available.  The films were listed by locality and I saw many films of Louisville, Kentucky and got excited. I'm looking for Louis W Wollenweber, my husband's gg-grandfather, who was from Germany.  He married Phillapena Voehringer, also from Germany, in 1858.  We had the date based on a transcript of a family bible.  Now I have the record as recorded in the marriage register: Louisville, Kentucky Marriage Register, Sep 1858, p 98 (left side of register) This side of the page reads:       Sep 3, Louis W. Wollenwebber & Phillippena Voehringer, Augustus Bargas  Augustus Bargas is the person who married them.  The right hand side of the page
