ok, more information current as of this year   being married by a minister (Betheran Church) for the 1st marriage   was going to require an annullment before a Catholic Church marriage was going to be allowed take care, Debbie ________________________________ From: derfamgen <derfamgen@yahoo.com> To: "COOK-CO-IL-L@rootsweb.com" <COOK-CO-IL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 11, 2011 3:05 PM Subject: Re: [COOK-CO-IL] Another Catholic marriage question Thanks for all your suggestions.  I know the first wife was still living at the time of the second marriage.  I'm not sure if the first marriage was in the Catholic Church or not as I cannot see a copy of the marriage license on FamilySearch, only that they were married in Wisconsin.  Will have to research that further.   I found a copy of the marriage certificate from the Catholic second marriage and the address shown is 2153 Millard Ave., which when I google it, comes up as Blessed Sacrament Church in Chicago.  Do anyone know whether that church is still in existence?   Thanks again, Mickey in AZ On Mon, Oct 10, 2011 at 2:31 PM, derfamgen <derfamgen@yahoo.com> wrote: > Another Catholic marriage question here.  My grandfather was divorced from his first wife in the early 1910's.  She apparently had someone else on the side and left him and their two sons.  He remarried and I found records of both a civil marriage in 1917 and a Catholic marriage in 1920.  Would the catholic marriage have required an annulment of the first marriage in order for the second marriage to occur in the church?  Would the church keep records of that? > > Thanks, > Mickey in AZ > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to COOK-CO-IL-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > -- Lila White Mother Warrior to Mark, 20 and recovered http://remarkableson.wordpress.com/ Elgin, IL ----{--@ ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to COOK-CO-IL-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
