I have been looking through church microfilm records at the parish that our STEVENS descendants attended while in Lafayette, but I have yet to find one branch of that family in those records. I'm thinking of sending for marriage certificates for two couples, to see what church affiliation, if any, might be recorded, as well as to glean any other info. But before kissing the $$ goodbye, does anyone know what info would be on marriage certs in the 1920s? It won't be worth it to me, if it only provides the info I already know from the marriage records indexes. The two couples I am working on right now are: Harriette STEVENS and Delmar BELLINGER, m Oct 25, 1922 (want to see info in church records to see if they had any children, as none are showing on his obit in 1970, and I can't find an obit for her) Lulu M. STEVENS and Jesse A. WOOD, m Feb 10, 1918. If anyone knows the items included in the info fields on the marriage app or cert for that time period in general, I'd appreciate the advice. Jacqi

Jacqi, I have put transcriptions of two applications for members of my families online and you can see an example of what these contain. One is from 1913, the other 1927. http://www.rootsweb.com/~intippec/dodewatkins.html Hope this helps.
