much a crap shoot what you will get; as others have said all you
may get is a bare bones license copy, which may either be a
somewhat decorative item, or just the recording entry of it in the
county books. On some records you get a real bonanza though. I
have had marriage records where one or both children were under
age that included depositions from one or both parents
of the groom and bride that the marriage was approved of and birth
dates of both and sometimes of the parents
too.<BR></FONT><BR><FONT class=Apple-style-span size=2>That said
my never having pulled an entry for Clatsop county I would have to
defer to Sue and Denise in their assessment it is
probably a bare license copy.<BR></FONT><BR>Les Chapman<BR><BR>
