Witnesses Wm. McAleer of Meaford and Bertha Cameron of Rosedale.

Charlotte's place of birth is shown as Meaford. The Olmsteads actually lived in St. Vincent Township of Grey County. This per the 1871 and 1881 censuses. Meaford, Ontario, is located in St. Vincent Township. Charlotte, giving her place of birth as Meaford, probably meant it in the sense of being near Meaford.

The entire page represents marriages performed by A. Brown. It isn't clear if he is a clergyman or perhaps a Justice of the Peace. Since it is evident that the officiant's family members were witnesses, he was probably a clergyman. The residences of the persons marrying are mostly in Michigan.
