Thanks for the offer, Stephen. The one thing that messes me up, the Oregon Marriages online at ancestry have the groom's name and date of marriage, but not the bride's name! Frustrating. And the Oregon Death Index doesn't give the date, so it's impossible to be sure if the person listed is the one you are looking for. They (Oregon) could greatly improve their website and be far more helpful. My gripe for today.
