I'd appreciate having someone look up a marriage date for John "Jack" GISH (born as Johann Christian Fredrick GISCH 7/4/1879 in Clark Co, WI). He married Martha B. (maiden name unknown, born 10/31/1881, birthplace unknown). My best guess would be that they married about the turn of the century. They lived in the Portland area and had two sons, Forrest and Arno. Thanks. Carol AWE from Waukegan IL

They're not in the marriage index for Oregon, which starts out in 1906. Assuming their marriage WAS in Oregon, only the church would have the record.

Counties in Oregon kept the marriage records before 1906. Knowing the county is needed to search for a marriage before 1906. Counties had been keeping the marriage records even before Oregon became a state.
