Hello, first time I have posted to the USA Board.
Pretty please! :)
I am seeking help to learn more about a deceased aunt of mine.
Is there any freely available information out there about this particular marriage?
Margaret Anne Gibbs (age 36) recorded as marrying a Kenneth Coleman, Clark County, Nevada, 14 September 1989. The marriage recorded on 22 September 1989. Book 922, page C153714, Instrument no. 94567. (Officiant type, Religious celebrant?)
I have no idea if it is actually her, and would be grateful if anyone can shed any light at all on the couple, who they were and where they were from.
Thank you very much in advance.
Philip

Not sure if the above record is for the correct person (lots of different listing with that name in Nevada area. If it is the correct husband and your great aunt's age is correct there would seem to have been a considerable difference in age. Nevada was/is very popular for marriages and many of the brides and groom might have resided out of state and just gone there for ceremony.
From Margaret's age in your post she could easily still be alive and we aren't allowed to post details of living people- or do you know that she has died?
-
or do you know that she has died?
He/she did call her a deceased aunt.
No time to look myself for this right now, but as you said, lots of people went to NV to marry. She might not have lived there.

And on the other hand, Mr Coleman died in Reno, so maybe they did live there.

If that is the correct Mr. Coleman ???

Have to agree with Aghadowey - its unlikely to be the gentleman on find a grave as suggested in reply 1

the tree owner's username is pfdavies1549, from Romford, and he/she is 60+ years old. they signed in to their ancestry account yesterday.
the tree had 34,522 people in it. I don't always trust large trees like that, but maybe it's correct.

Hiya and thank you for the information. I have been trying for a number of years (several attempts) to make contact with the owner of that tree, but I have never received a response despite us being related. :-\
