The Xydias Family Tree at ancestry.com is the source for the dte and location of Jason Field's marriage to Margaret Sewell. The tree cited Kentucky Marriage Records, indexed at ancestry.com, but I found no record of the marriage there. But the date harmonized with the 1850 census which said they had been married for less than a year.
