HG & MB were married at the farm home. Presumably the farm home of Martha, however, it could be the farm home of Harm, or someone else's farm home.

They were married at his farm home.

Most likely, the farm is not in the village limits of Wilmot, rather, the marriage probably took place in one of the townships. Wilmot would be one of 3 things: 1. The closest town, 2. the town which has the post office that serves the farm, 3. the town where the church is located under whose auspice the wedding took place. <>
