Surnames: Simpson, Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GgB.2ACE/677 Message Board Post: I would appreciate any lookups or suggestions as to how I can locate the marriage record for my ggrandmother Frances/Fannie Mae/May REAGAN (Regan, Riggin, etc.) and James SIMPSON. On the 1910 Lake Co. census, they are shown as having been married 2 years, but I have no idea where they married. Frances was in Weakley Co with father and brothers on the 1900 census---I've been unable to find Mr. SIMPSON in 1900. It is possible he had been married previously. Does anyone know if Lake Co used marriage applications about 1908? I would love to find any application, license, or certificate for this couple. Frances was in Caruthersville, Pemiscot, Mo. about 1915/16 and married Robert NICHOLS in 1918. She died in 1960 in Steele, Pemiscot, Mo. In some of her old photos, I found some pictures of some SIMPSON's and EVANS's. One is of a Burnie SIMPSON. I found some records for a Burnie Simpson in KY, IN, CO, & IL which I believe to all be the same person. I would like to solve this mystery and determine if this Burnie is the same one as in the picture, and if he was perhaps a son of Frances's 1st husband, James SIMPSON. Thanks Jewel
