I’m truly enjoying the design and layout of your blog. It’s a
very easy on the eyes which makes it

much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often.
Did you hire out a developer to create

your theme? Excellent work!

Sue Ann,

I’ve never seen that so I don’t know the answer. I recommend joining the Philly-Roots mailing list on Rootsweb.com and asking the question there.

I just noticed that my parents marriage license application has the word “Ward” circled where the choice is “…is the cild of..is the ward of…”

No other information is given. It was 1942 in Philly. How do I go about finding out why that word was circled? Both of my parents were “of age”.

Something to note: If the LDS took photos/copies of the records and the photos did not come out well, they did not put them into their records. So some records may not be in their records specifically due to that.

I’m trying to find a marriage record for my great-grandparents. My great-grandmother Margaret Ryan emigrated from Tipperary, Ireland circa 1885 met and married a Mr. Wheeler (I don’t know his first name)! circa 1886-1895. I’ve tried the family search site also but no luck either!!

Can someone help me find this record. I’m living in Ireland and don’t know where to begin?

Thanks in advance for any help.

All of my grandparents were born in Philly. This new index is exciting news, except that it still won’t give me the information I want, since 1905 records don’t have the parents names. This changed, accd to the Philly site, on July 28, 1913, when a marriage certificate added the parents names, too. I have two relatives on this new index which says they were both married in…1913, but I don’t know which month! Is it worth it for me to spend $35 per certificate and take the chance? Not at this point.
