Hello, I may be looking for a needle in a hay stack. Trying to find information on an Elizabeth JOHNSON b abt 1850-1860 in Alabama, possibly Etowah Co. She was the daughter of Christopher Bullard JOHNSON and Nancy HAMBRICK. Christopher's father may have come from NC. Elizabeth reportedly married and moved to Beaver Creek Colony, Indian Territory. I do not have any dates for her marriage or moving and do not know the name of the man she married. Hope someone can give me a clue where to look. Thanks, Patsy Spradley Davis

Thanks to all of you who offered suggestions regarding the marriage certificate I was seeking. A kind soul (John!) has copied it for me and is sending. THANK YOU!! Sandy

What's the easiest way to get a marriage rec. for Etowah county? I have a marriage for William WORKS m. Sarah LAWSON, 8 Nov 1869, recorded in Book 2, Pg. 027. The index book I found this in, Marriages of Etowah Co. by Pruitt, says there is "more data on actual certificate." I'd like to know what the additional data is. THANKS, Sandy

Could be a letter giving permission for them to be married. This is what was attached to my grandparents certificate from Etowah Co. when I received it. Of course, it said, "please allow William C. McNeal to marry my daughter, the man has no father." It was signed by the future father-in law. Still haven't found his parents, siblings, etc. and probably never will. Hope you have better luck. Will
