Will M. Marshall age 23 to Miss Cora Blake age 19. License dated 23 Feb 1889. Married on the 24th of February 1889, by J. G. Bailey, Minister of the Gospel

It is doubtful both were named Cora, but then there is the following Texas Death Certificate which gives a very different day of birth for Cora:
