Was wondering if you could please look in the county books for this marriage the year may be 1836 and this might be found on page 36 of book 1 >> Anita, try this http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/cgi-bin/archives/marriage.s Enter the name (either) and county or statewide - when you find the record you are looking for scan to right for complete record. When you first get this site, instructions will be there for obtaining copy of the record. Good luck. Carol
