    • In the Principality of Lippe until about 1870, it was customary for engaged couples to register their intended marriage with the nearest office of the Lower Court (German = Amt). This registration, or Eheprotokoll, typically recorded the couple's names and intended place of residence after marriage, the names of their parents, and most importantly, the dowry and any other financial arrangements connected with the marriage. By registering these details with the judicial court, the Eheprotokoll served as a marriage contract. In the 1870s, as license bureaus were established and civil marriages became more common, the use of Eheprotokoll began to died out.

      "It is right that he [Konrad Johann Ludolph Starkebaum] married Elisabeth Meßmacher on 15 Apr 1792 in the church of Sonneborn. The date 28 March 1792 in Amt Barntrup accords the date of marriage record. It was usual until the year 1870 that the engaged couple stated their approaching marriage by the Inferior Court about four weeks bevor the church marriage. This local office for Sonneborn was the Inferior Court (= Amt) in the next larger town Barntrup. In this marriage record (german: Eheprotokoll) were entered the names of the couple, their parents, where the couple intends to live and - the most important point - the marriage portion and financial affairs. So it was like a marriage contract. After 1870 it was not longer usual for a couple to make a Eheprotokoll. In the 1870th the official civil marriage was stated and in this years the marriage license bureaus startet their work in Germany. On this way there´s no contradiction in term of the marriage date between the records of Pastor Hein and our researches."
