If these marriages occured after 1885, they would be recorded in the county clerks office of Venango County. Pennsylvania required marriages to be recorded in the County offices after that date. So the children of this marriage would not be in these books. As I mentioned in my post, these books only cover marriages in Venango County up to 1885. Please contact the county clerks office in Venango. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
