Hi All, > If these records are not on film, would the CC clerks office be able to > do a search from approx. 1939-1942 without charging a fortune? I just had this same experience. My aunt got married "sometime around the time she turned 40" my cousin said. sheesh I figured this would be about 1950, so I used the Cook County genealogy request form, paid $15, and wrote a nice note on the form requesting that they search 2 years before & after the date, please. Voila! This week i received the marriage license in the mail. Good Luck Bobbi
