The following was transcribed from just one (1) sheet of the Jackson County, IL Register of Marriages - 1881-1882. It appears that all of these were entered into the Register on May 4, 1882. I have done my best with these transcriptions, but the handwriting is very difficult to read. NOTE: This is the only page I have of this register and I have no additional information on these marriages than what is listed here. ~ Karima ***************************************************************** Full name of Groom: Richard H.
