Thanks so much to Cliff Bowlin and Rebecca Wells Olachea on this list for the Marriage Index lookup (below) in January. I just received the Social Security application for Francis Lowe, and this couple is definitely her parents! Does anyone know if marriage certificates/registration records are available for 1880 in Lawrence County? If so, how do I get a copy and what information would it contain? Marriage Index: Missouri, 1851-1900 Lowe, William Isaiah Spouse : Bryant, Mary Lucy Alice Marriage date : Nov 7, 1880 County : Lawrence Gender : Male Source : County Court Records Microfilm Number : 0930949 - 0932751 I am also interested in census records for Lawrence Co. According to Frances LOWE's SSI application, she was born in Mt. Vernon, Lawrence Co., MO on March 18, 1893. I assume that's where the family lived. They had 7 kids born between 1881 and 1902 before they left for Texas. I thought Mt. Vernon was in Virginia. Is there another Mt. Vernon in MO.? Thanks in advance to all the kind and helpful folks on this list! Linda Hamid Roseville, CA
