Sarah Ellen Sims -parents

Classification: Query
Surnames: Wiseman/Sims/Bates
In most of my research I have found Thomas Sims and Mary Jane BAtes listed as Sarah Ellen Sims parents.

In early Aug. I was able to visit the Union Co courthouse and found the original marriage certificate for Sarah Ellen Sims and Mathew Alexander Wiseman. I was taken back to find Robert and Sarah Sims listed as Sarah Ellen's parents. There,also,was a statement signed by "Sally Sims" that she had no objection to the marriage.

Can anyone clarify this for me ??
