If someone on the list has ready access to the Oregon marriage index I would appreciate their checking this;

Name                           JohnHoward Wells

Marriage Date             5Jun 1931

County                        Douglas

Spouse's Name            AvalonneButler Olson

Collection Oregon, Marriage Indexes, 1906-2009

I checked the Douglas county marriage archive on Family search page by page from early May to late August and this record is not in it and there is no entry for either John Wells or Avalonne Olson in the index. 
Avalonne's first marriage to Harley Olson is in the records, but neither license or return seems to be in Douglas county and a search of other stuff on family search comes up empty.
I got the above information from Archives.com, but usually they provide a printout of the index page while for this one all I get is the text.
I realized while writing this I hadn't checked state archves, but there I find nothing relevant, though I did find an entry for an Oscar Melvin Olson that got me thinking cousin Oscar had been married three times until I realized the surname was Olson, not Melvin.

No Ian, I am not really trying to get the whole world in my family file!
