PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME ?
My great grandfather John FISHER married Phoebe Elizabeth RUGGJanuary 14, 1873 in Whiteside County, Ill. Their marriage record number is 00003267. But, it doesn't give any ages or dates to even estimate how old they were at the time of marriage. I am searching info on John and Phoebe their dates of birth and towns/counties of birth. I know John was born in Illinois but I do not know where or when, and Phoebe was born in Pennsylvaniabut I do not know where or when.My father Lee Fisher and grandfather Levi Fisher (known to some as Lee) are deceased and there is no one left to ask that would know. I sent away for the birth certificate of my grandfather Levi Fisher but again it gives no dates or ages of John and Phoebe, only the states they were born in. I keep running into brick walls on this. It seems to be a mystery, but someone somewhere had to give birth to them. I cannot write for records when I don't know anything except the states they were born in.I am in my 50's, my father and grandfather took this information to their graves with them and I don't want to be added among the rest of my family who never passed down their heritage to their children or grandchildren. I never knew my grandmother RUGG's side of the family, and I would love to be in contact with them. Please can someone help me ?
