I found a marriage listed in Wise Co for my great grandparents & would like to know how I can get a copy of the license. Do I have to request it from the county or can it be obtained through your archives? The info is as follows: Groom - J.B. Foster Bride - Miss M.A. Watson Date: Sept 4, 1898 Book 4 Please send the answer to jmccue1@kc.rr.com or mmccue@merrlin.com.. Thanks you Mary McCue

Mary, I transcribed the marriage data from the LDS microfilm because the certificates do not list any relatives. You can order the certificates from the Wise County Clerk. I don't know the new price as it has changed. Don't forget to tell the clerk both the book and page number. Sometimes they claim that the marriage doesn't exist because their indices are not (I believe) as thorough and complete as mine is. My biggest problem that present a problem to you the user is that the names were very difficult to read at times and I may have misinterpreted the brides and grooms names. They are listed twice on the certificate so that helped some. Foster, J. B. Watson, Miss M. A.
