  6. Oramel A Sackett, Family Bible Records, marriage, "Calvin P. Sackett to Emeline Shaw, May 23, 1838." It is assumed that this bible record should have read "Caroline", not "Emeline" Shaw. There is a contradiction between the bible record and George Holcomb's diary records. It would seem likely that the diary records, written contemporaneously, and listing two marriages, would be the more accurate. It may have been the case that the bible records were made at a later date.
