Could some kind soul help me out above and beyond the call of duty on this problem? I still have not found the parents of my great-grandfather John Albert Richards, who was born in November 1864 or 65. Would someone be able to tell me of marriages with a groom named Richards in the period 1855-1864? If this is too much, I understand. I am grasping at straws a bit. Thanks in advance. Jeff Richards Muenster, Germany

This is from Family Tree Maker's Maine 1743-1891 Marriage Index CD # 404. Most of the people who have asked for lookups weren't listed, but it says it has approximately 230,000 individuals.
