Hi, I am searching for marriage records for James Volney Bing and Sarah Jane Borah. I understand they may have burned down. I have this information and I must have gotten it out of a book, it states: they were married 12/16/1869 at the father of the bride's house, J.C. Borah. I do have photos of her cemetery marker so I know they were married. However, that date has to be wrong because of some other information I have found out. According to LDS records, he married Rebecca Boggess in Ohio in 1869 and he and Rebecca show up in Clay County, IL on the 1870 census. I have looked through the Illinois archives online and cannot find anything else. I have also searched this website and cannot find anything out. Any other ideas? Thanks! Karen
Karen, I believe there was a James Valentine BING b. 1848 Ohio d. 18 Sept 1896 & wife Mary E. (BRUNER) b. 26 January 1850 d. 25 Oct 1938, both buried Mt. Pleasant Cemetery in Wayne Co, IL. Were these related? http://www.tribalpages.com/tribes/Bcookiegma Beverly (HIMES) BARGER ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karen Lynch" <klynch39@charter.net> To: <ILWAYNE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2004 6:31 AM Subject: [ILWAYNE-L] Marriage Records? > Hi, > > I am searching for marriage records for James Volney Bing and Sarah Jane > Borah.
