No, I dont think getting marriage records would help at all because back then they didnt list all the info they do today. I have everthing on Francis and her husband Nathaniel (I am trying to find out when and where his father died), I am trying to find Francis's mother, father, siblings and grandparents. I can not find any of them in the census. I did find Francis's mother Mary Jane Burris-Near-Hall in the 1 census living with Francis before she died. I sent away for death certificates on Francis and her mother, that is how I found out who their parents were. I dont have a death date on Francis's father John Near to send for a death certificate, nor do I for Francis's Grandparents Daniel and Annie Burris. If I could find out when and where they died I could send for their death certificates also. Thank you so much for all your help. Have a wonderful day.
