Thank you Bill and Darlene for your efforts. Ruth was born in 1894 so the delayed birth dated 1901 could not have been her child. I have access to Ancestry but have had no luck with their marriage records as the date of the marriage is not there aside from the year. I found her two sister's marriages in the Salt Lake City Family Library, in a book, in the Oregon section, but didn't think to check for Ruth.<br>Thanks again,<br>Lynda<br> </div>
