I am in need of help in locating a marriage record for my ggfather Jacob Henry FRANCE. He married Mary Elizabeth PHILLIPS of Paxton, IL around 1886. His sister Amanda FRANCE was married to Morris BOCKOVEN in Elliott, IL. Mary Elizabeth's family farmed outside of Paxton. I have checked the online database but nothing is there. The minister may not have made the return or possibly it was a church record only. The PHILLIPS family were Presbyterians. They arrived in Ford Co. around 1867 and Mary Elizabeth was born there in 1868. I am also looking for possible cemetery records for the death of John FRANCE in 1884. Thank you for your help.
