[or-roots] Vital Records and 2nd question

[Denise Sproed]

Two thoughts on the missing marriage events.  1.  Have you looked in Clark
County, Washington?  A lot of Oregonians would go over the state line to be
married with less blood work and paperwork delay.  2.  Often the date and
location of marriage are listed in the divorce records.

 

And on two dates for divorces. Either they didn't complete the first divorce
or perhaps they remarried and then divorced.  I have two of those in my
family branches.

Hi Layne and everyone,

Are other years available for those marriage returns?

 

I don't seem to be able to find my father-in-law's first marriage.  John
Brewer Howard married Doris Unknown on unknown date.   I can find two
divorce records for them.  I don't know why there are two records with two
dates.  I do know that John Brewer Howard married Nancy Anderson in Chicago,
IL on Dec 15, 1947.  Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks!

Ronda

OR-Rooters,

 

Happy New Year to all.  

 

To help you celebrate the New Year the 1961 Death Certificates, Marriage
Returns and Divorce Returns are now available for public research.

 

These records maybe researched in person or if you have an exact date and
county you may request a copy from the Reference staff for just $5.00
(Out-of-state residents $10.00) at;

 

reference.archives at state.or.us

 

If you have never used the marriage returns they contain useful information
that is not found in the Marriage Records maintained by the county clerk.
The returns include occupations of the parties, number of times previously
married and information on parents.

 

Here's hoping you have many genealogical successes in 2012.
