Dear Listers,
I believe I have thanked each of you who responded to my posting about
the elopement of my Aunt and Uncle Butzberger in Indiana.
Each response was thoroughly checked out.
Early on, I had contacted the Canton, Ohio Clerk of Courts as they were
divorced in that court. I reasoned, as one responder had pointed out,
if they were applying to be married they probably presented proof of
marriage. The clerk of courts did not agree with my premise, but I
asked for a second review of the case file.
Today I received a copy of a affidavit stating where and when they were
married and that they had two children and described them, Olay!!!
Are your ready for the answer . . . . Decatur (Adams) County. Two
responders suggested Adams and it was on my list of the next county to
check.
Moral to this take . . .lots of perseverance and helpers, like you.
Thank you, one and all.
