My grandfather's mother died when he was 4 and his father died when he was still a child, and my grandfather, himself, died in the 1970's. So, never being able to meet him, his side of the family has always been a mystery. Based on some information that my Grandfather's brother's widow sent me, I was able to track down a marriage certificate for my grandfather's parents. They were married in July 1911. Their first child was born in October 1911. Motivation for a marriage, perhaps?
I'm so pleased that I could find something concrete about my grandfather's family, like a marriage certificate, of his parentage. I'm going to send it to my grandmother, who is always interested in these things.
I would really be interested in finding out why/how his mother and father died. If his mother died about 1917, is there a way for me to get her death certificate?
