    1. Harper Marriages Look-up Please
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: HARPER, TERRILL Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Am.2ADI/238 Message Board Post: Jesse HARPER married Nancy A. TERRILL before 1861 (when their first known child was born). She died sometime between 1870 and 1875 (probably). Jesse's wife was named Anna in the 1875 census. It is believed that Jesse married Anna prior to 1873 (when son Jacob Harper was born). That is just a guess. So Jesse and Anna could have married anytime between 1870-1875. I would appreciate a look up of Jesse's 2 marriages please. Are there any books on births and deaths for Linn County available? Thank you in advance for your help!! J.
