I have the marriage license, but want to see what other genealogical information might be on the application. Would they be at the City Archives? Will they copy for you by mail?

The Maryland State Archives has records from that time period. The website gives complete information including the fact that there may not be an index of that period but they do research for a fee. Also if you know the name of the church you may get more information from the church records as the state marriage records generally did not include the name of the couple's parents. I have listed the website address below. It gives a full explanation. http://www.mdarchives.state.md.us/msa/refserv/html/comarria.html#certs Jean Johnson On 26 Jul 2006 17:12:07 -0600, bobbi@epix.net <bobbi@epix.net> wrote: > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AFB.2ACI/4707 > > Message Board Post: > > Am looking to get a copy of an original application for a marriage license from 1947.
