Shared note: A record of this marriage is also shown in the Littleton, MA, Vital Records as having taken place on 4 Jun 1785, followed by the note "Intent not recorded". Given the difference in dates, I would suggest that this earlier date IS the recording of an intent in the town of the Groom, about a month before the marriage in the hometown of the Bride.
