[or-roots] Oregon Death Index & Marriage Index

[W David Samuelsen]

Somebody please look up for me

Sherril Lynn Curtis. I know she married in month of Jan. I need exact 
date of license - in Baker County. Married after 1998 but before 2005.

this is my own sister who gave my whole family the cold shoulder.
