No recorded marriages in Lenawee County before 1852, we had a courthouse fire. Even if there were marriages in 1851, they were not recording the names of parents on the marriage records at that time, I cannot remember the year that was required, but it was much later than this time frame. Good luck in your research. you could try this for deaths, maybe you will find something??? http://www.mdch.state.mi.us/pha/osr/gendisx/index.htm On 21 Mar 2006 12:34:23 -0700, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: Cole;Rockwood;Sherman > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/mFB.2ACE/2711 > > Message Board Post: > > Marriage of Marvin Cole and Abigail Rockwood Sherman (widow) approx 1851, > need her parents names & date if possible.
