I'm guessing one of you will be able to read where this marriage took place . . . If you can, would you let me know so that I can pass the information along to the researcher who asked me? I will happily give full credit to the person who figures it out. 1030220 MCGOWAN, FRANCES CARNEY, SARAH 1892-11-23 / 00192926 COOK http://www.chicagogenealogy.com/a09/251e.jpg http://www.chicagogenealogy.com/a09/251.jpg Thanks!

>From prior answers to this thread, we were told that the Catholic priest's name was Father Bruton and that the church was at Rosecrans, Illinois. I checked volume 2 of "A History of the Parishes of the Archdiocese of Chicago" edited by Monsignor Harry Koenig and published in 1980. On page 1573 in the history of St. Patrick Parish in Wadsworth, Lake County, Illinois it states that "Rev. M. A. Bruton began his work as pastor of St. Patrick Church in 1892." Also on the same page is the following information: According to a history of St. Patrick Church which appeared in "The New World" [This is the official newspaper of the Archdiocese of Chicago and is currently called "Catholic New World".] of Apr. 14, 1900 "Rosecrans (formerly Mill Creed) was a large settlement of Irish farmers, situated on the highway between Rockford and Little Fort (now Waukegan). IT was an out-mission attended by Waukegan. It was well known as the Mill Creek parish until the Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad passed through the settlement, when the station was named Rosecrans. When Father Bruton took up his residence at the station [1892] he named the parish Rosecrans....The Church is still located at Mill Creek, about four miles from Rosecrans." The person requesting this information should look at LDS Microfilm 1577857 Items 1-2 for St. Patrick Church in Wadsworth, Illinois. This microfilm covers Item 1 - funerals, deaths 1904-1909, baptisms 1869-1915 and Item 2 marriages 1869-1915.
