Hi Brenda, Your Email sounds familiar. What kind of information do you need? There's a ton of information at the Illinois State Archives online databases. You must know the county they lived in since you have the copy of their marriage license. This is the address for the Archives. A global search just worked for me, just put in the last name and a comma. It will show you all the databases that have that surname. It's better not to put in the first name because it might be Charles, Chas. or even Charlie. _http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/archives/databases.html_ (http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/archives/databases.html) Joan
