I am attempting to identify the second wife of WILLIAM JOSEPH RISDON. He and his first wife, MARY KIRBY, moved from Warrenton, VA to Washington, D.C. between 1880 and 1885. MARY died in DC November 23,1885. WILLIAM died in DC March 29, 1898. His obit in the True Index (Warrenton, VA) notes that he was "twice married." however, the obit and his DC death certicate do not identify the second wife. WILLIAM died at his residence 1010 8th St. NW, DC. The 1890 Census does not exist. In searching the 1900 DC Census I found an Elizabeth L. Risdon, a widow, age 41, but the Census was done at her place of employment rather than her residence. I have a copy of her unprobated Will signed by her 8/19/1905, but it makes no reference to her former spouse. Does anyone on this list have any records for DC marriages for the period between November 23, 1885 and March 29, 1898? If so, would appreciate a search for the second marriage of WILLIAM JOSEPH RISDON. If not, can anyone do a marriage record check for me at the Marriage Records Bureau (or whatever they call it)? If anyone on the list needs information on the Risdon, Boteler, or Decker surnames please contact me. Thanks very much, John Risdon Punta Gorda, FL
