Does anybody have any idea where a couple that was under age would go to get married if they couldn't marry in Cowley County without a waiting period, or parental consent, etc.? My grandmother, Velda Alison, always said that she married my grandfather, Frank W. Simmons in 1928 in Winfield, Cowley County, Kansas (they lived there and in Dexter). However, there is no record of their marriage in Cowley County. My mother said that she thought they had run away to get married and then came back. In those days, where would they have gone? Would they have gone to another county in Kansas or to Oklahoma across the border? Did Oklahoma have the same marriage rules as Kansas? I think my grandmother was only 14 or 15 when they got married. I know that they WERE married because they had to get a divorce several years later, so I assume that they had been legally wed. Any suggestions would be helpful. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
