What I did, was film the old indexes. Then I spent 18 months putting all 22,000+ individuals into a database. Then I printed out a hard copy, and spent another two weeks at the clerk's office, comparing the original licenses against the index info I had. Found over 300 marriages which were not in the index, and tons of corrections. Spent another year putting all that into my database, to arrive at the very first complete and concise index ever done, of all those earliest marriages. Clearfield Co. published it in 1997, and it has been out of print for over a year, now. That's why I have negotiated a special reprint with the co., with a cutoff date of Labor Day; they need a minimum of 30 books ordered, to do a reprint--so far, I have orders for 21. Julie

Oh--he's not listed as CHARLES on the license; he's recorded as OSCAR Jordan. The "Charles" is what threw me off. Julie

Lynn, In my book, "Mason Co., WV, Marriages, 1806-1915," I have the following: JORDAN, Charles W & SLACK, Nancy m 15 Apr 1894 JORDAN, Charles W & LEWIS, Elvira m 25 Dec 1896 HTH!

Andrea: I am looking for a Jack Kelly and his line. To my knowledge he was born in West Virginia somewhere in about 1925. He married my cousin, Florence Irene Nicholson Kelly in about 1949. I think he lives in or around Page, West Virginia but I have not been able to roust him out yet. When I do, the counties other than Fayette should be a great help to me. Thanks for responding.
