Was Logan still a part of Sangamon county in the time frame of when these people were married? That would explain why Sangamon county and not Logan county.

That's a good thought but it doesn't apply in either case. I believe his was about 1915 and mine was 1885. The marriage records pre 1839 are at IRAD, no need to go through the Sangamon County Clerk or those. And IRAD is considerably cheaper.
