Giles County, Virginia Marriages, 1880
The definitions for the abbreviations below are as follows :
 
   Co.- County
   W- white   AA- African-American
   gp- groom's parents   bp- bride's parents
   go- groom's occupation   Md.- married
and some of the months are abbreviated in the regular way

If you see someone born in West Virginia and they would be born before 1863 then it would have been Va.
If one or both parents names are not listed here that is because they were not listed in the original record
