What's so great about these records?
It is unusual to find such excellent vital records being kept by the county before 1900. Both her birth and her marriage were documented by the civil authority. Before birth certificates and death certificates were required for all Americans, local jurisdictions may or may not have kept records. Des Moines County did an excellent job.
