Note: There are some obvious errors here including the birth palce of Caroline Sorensen (should be Denmark), and the spelling of Archibald's last name in the 1875 record. Apparently, either Archibald was going by Archibald Walter at this time, or else the clerk in both cases wrote it the same way. By the birth date and place it is definite that this is really Archibald Waller Overton Buchanan and NOT Archibald Walter, his son, born in 1859.
Important Note: In all of the family group sheets that I have seen, the marriage/sealing date of Archibald and Caroline Sorensen has been listed as 27 Sep. 1876, but as can be seen from the Endowment House records, it really took place in 1875.
