Message Board Post:
I recently reviewed an on-line auction of a marriage certificate. I did not purchase it nor am I a Chatfield or Gonia researcher.
The marriage certificate was a Levi Gonia to a Alice Chatfield on Feb 16, 1893. All rootsweb entries for an Alice Jane Chatfield with the same date of marriage in 1893 show her being married to a Levi Conia.
Levi's surname, however, was clearly a "G" and not a "C" which may have come from a transcription error years back and then carried forward in time. The couple can be found in subsequent census records under Levi and Alice Gonia in Wisconsin.
