A partial transcription of an LDS microfilm of Kimberley marriage affidavits (not actual marriage registers, but are simply documents stating that there is no legal impediment to the couple's impending marriage. There is a little more information on some of the records that were not transcribed, most notably, the name of the bride's father. So if you want me to look-up the complete record, please let me know the Microfilm #, Item #, and the Entry #, together with the names of the bride and groom. Ellen Stanton"
