If not, can you steer me to what I might have to order in the way of film? Cordell Mason FUSON b. 17 Nov 1883 in Tacoma, Pierce Co, WA, m. abt 1905 to Jennie Amelia JONES b. Oct 1878 in MN. They had their first child in 1906. Cordell died 29 Nov 1976 in Bremerton, Kitsap Co. WA Jennie died 20 Jan 1945 in Centralia, Lewis Co, WA. She was divorced from Cordell but apparently retained the Fuson name to the time of her death. Thank you!!! Gayle gayle@olypen.com >> Gayle, Howdy cousin!! Heritage Quest Research Library happens to have the Pierce County Marriage Index on microfilm. They will sometimes do lookups for you by request if you are not close to their library. You might want to call them to find out! I am going to Wenatchee the weekend of October 3 to see all of the FUSON, HEWLING, CORN, COUCHMAN, MADDOX family that is buried there... a couple dozen people! And to meet my aunt, who I have not met before! She's my dad's sister. I have a city directory for Kitsap County, 1929. Neither Cordell or Jennie are listed in it at that time. That may be a clue that they were still in Pierce County in 1929. It might be a safe bet that they met, married and had their child in Pierce County then moved to Kitsap County after 1929. Never know! I will be going to the Tacoma Library next week and will lookup everything I can find on them there and get back to you.
