I have before me a copy of an original record from a FHL microfilm (#1,013,958). The record comes from Volume B, Page 154 of Registration of Marriage, and is dated 2 May 1847. The marriage took place in Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin Territory. Wisconsin became a state 29 May 1848. Since the register covers marriages when Wisconsin was a territory, as well as a state, should I begin the citation:
Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, Registration of Marriage, b:154 - or
insert the word Territory?
I know, I know, picky...
