APPENDIX B.
MARRIAGES.
That portion of the following record of Marriages, which ex- tends from 1644 to 1698, is copied from the Town Records of Hartford. In the recoil of the Colonists of New England from the Churchly authority of their European homes, the ceremony of marriage was regarded "as a civill thing, and no wher found in ye gospell to be layd on ye ministers as a parte of their office." Marriages were sanctioned by civil magistrates and be- came events of town record. In 1694, however, the General Court of Connecticut passed a rather grudging law "for the sattisfac- tion of such as are conscienciously desirous to be marryed by the ministers," empowering ministers to perform the rite. It has been thought best in this Catalogue to transcribe from the Town archives the marriages there recorded-as being presumably in large measure those of persons connected directly or indirectly with the Church-from the point where the Town Record begins, down to that at which that of the Pastor of this Church com- mences. It will be observed that the Act of ministerial empower- ment for this purpose did not apparently at once incline the min- isters to undertake the office, or the parties to a marriage to solicit them thereto; the Act having been ratified Oct. 11, 1694, and Mr. Woodbridge's first entry of a marriage performed by him being June 16, 1698.
