Hello Again, Wow, thank you all for your interest. I think I might still be confused. I have gotten what I think is the marriage RECORD twice: It shows a "stub" part to the left with the names of the bride and groom, the right has their names, the date and the ministers name. I am interested in the application, in the hopes that it might have the brides parents listed. I wrote to the archives and asked for the application, and I got the marriage record again. What am I doing wrong?Thank all of you so much! What a great response. Catherine --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo! Mail - 100MB free storage!
