Hi Betty, I found it.... (Vol 335, pg 99) On 15 March 1882, William McINNIS married Mary A. CARR in Everett (where both resided). He was a carpenter and age 26 -- she was 24. His place of birth says Halifax, Nova Scotia -- hers just says Canada. It was his second marriage, and her first. He was the son of Malcolm and Esther -- her parents are not listed -- just a blank space.... (was she an orphan?) Ceremony performed by (it looks like) T. Corwin/Courvin Watkins, Pastor M. E. Church I then looked to see if there was a first marriage for him, or a death of his first wife, but couldn't find anything -- maybe that happened while he was still in Canada?? Happy New Year!
