Hi List
Haven't put a message on for a long time.

I have a marriage certificate for Albion P GEST JR & Sadie Mae BAKER for 22 June 1907 he has he was born Evansville 10 May 1884 but I can't find his birth?
I have had the birth LDS film in at my library here in Australia.
Albion JR also said he was married before in 1904 & it was by death. But couldn't find this earlier marriage for him.

Father is Albion P GEST SR & his mother Margaret S(c)hoff they married Dec of 1884.

Sadie Mae Baker was also born 7 July 1888 Evansville couldn't a birth for her.
Her parents are dead on the certificate but her adopted Father is John SNODGRASS. So a dead end there.

Albion P GEST mother Margaret S(C)HOFF remarried to William EDWARDS 9 June 1906 she was divorced 3 times.
She said she was born Vincennes IN 8 Jan 1864 & her father is George M SHOFF & her mother Elizabeth WEATHERS but she is dead. How could I check Vincennes records for births.

I haven't been able to find Margaret S(C)HOFF on the 1880 census?
Albion P GEST is with his first wife Susan (Mary) SETCHELL on the 1880 census.

Thank you any help & your time.
