Hi, Listers, If anyone will be able to check a lookup for a 1883 marriage in the statewide index for me, I certainly would appreciate it. I am trying to verify the fact that the marriage took place and where it happened. I know the names of the bride, groom, and their parents, and have already taken the chance on paying the fee for a Syracuse marriage certificate search--but they must've gone out of town to have the marriage. They are not direct ancestors and I don't really need a certificate, just confirmation of the event and where. Groom: Carl/Karl/Charles GILCHER, born 24 May 1862, son of Abraham Gilcher and Louise/Luisa Haessel/Hasel, all born in Germany; he was a recent immigrant to Syracuse at the time Bride: Philippina/Phoebe LUDWIG, born 21 November 1863 in Syracuse or in Pennsylvania, daughter of Jakob and Caroline Ludwig, German immigrants living in Syracuse Date of Marriage: 22 May 1883 Many thanks for any help on this!
