  • Notes  Married:
    • Marriage Certificate:


      Two of Phoebe Potter's granddaughters told Karen Gerke that Phoebe Potter was 13 years old when she was married to George. According to her death certificate, Phoebe was born 15 Dec 1861. For her to have been 13 years old at the time of her marriage on Dec. 14 the year would have been 1874; one day before her 14th birthday.

      Karen says that: " The fact that the were married in Wisconsin was a puzzle. Esdaile, Pierce County, Wisconsin was just across the river from the Goodhue county seat of Red Wing. If marriage laws were the same then as now, they could not have been married in Minnesota until age 15, even with parents consent. In Wisconsin the age doesn't matter as long as they have parents consent. We believe they couldn't get married in Minnesota because she was only 13, so crossed just into Wisconsin where they could marry."
