Mary: I found no marriage record for William Johnson and Mary Ferris in Monterey County Index to Marriage Licenses 1, 1893 - 1906; nor did I find one in Index to Marriage Licenses 2, 1906 - 1923. I also checked Index to Marriage Licenses 3, 1925 - 1926. Last, I checked Index to Marriage Licenses 4, 1926 - 1942 (Males only) and found no entry for this couple. Here is the death certificate transcription for Mary Ferris Johnson. She is on my Monterey obit lookup list. --Sheila P. ++++++++++++ DEATH CERTIFICATE Source: Monterey County Recorder; District 2751 - #CR7 {or LR7}; Case 12 - #49 Name: Mary Ferris Johnson Date of Death: 16 January 1935 Time of Death: 2:30 p.m. Place of Death: Peninsula Community Hospital, outside Carmel Residence: 227 Granite Street, Pacific Grove In City, Town or Rural District of Death: 31 years In State: 31 years Age: About 78 Date of Birth: About 1857 Birthplace: Burr Oak, Michigan Sex: Female Race: White Occupation: Housewife Marital Status: Widow Spouse: William Johnson Father: Robert Ferris Birthplace: Unknown Mother: Unknown Birthplace: Unknown Cause of Death: "No diagnosis" Dr.: H.S.
