Hello, I found some interesting info from a newspaper article that says my gggf was married for a third time. I'm now trying to find a database or need lookup help to find a marriage announcement in a Oakland Newspaper. There marriage took place on : Nov. 13, 1899 in Oakland John McLaughlin b. Ireland to Helen ? I do know John had lived most of his life in SF but must of for a time moved to Oakland around the turn of the century. I looked through the SF Chronicle and only found an article about ending this marriage. I was thinking there may have been more info in Oakland about the start of the marriage. If anyone either can lookup this up or send me where I can lookup online I would so appreciate it. I'm looking for her maiden name so I can get a marriage record. Thanks so much for the help! Cathie

Cathie... Here's some information on where the marriage could be found in the Alameda County marriage records, which date back to 1854. I live several miles away from Oakland, but maybe some kind person might take a look for you at the Alameda Recorder's Office: http://www.acgov.org/auditor/clerk/vitalresearch.htm Barb > To: casanfra@rootsweb.com> From: mankzcat@gmail.com> Date: Tue, 7 Oct 2008 10:05:16 -0700> Subject: [CASANFRA] Marriage Newspaper Lookup Help> > Hello,> > I found some interesting info from a newspaper article that says my > gggf was married for a third time.> I'm now trying to find a database or need lookup help to find a > marriage announcement in a Oakland Newspaper.> > There marriage took place on :> > Nov. 13, 1899 in Oakland> John McLaughlin b.
