Manhatten Marriages 1949
« on: Saturday 18 March 23 04:56 GMT (UK) »
I'm wondering if anyone can help me please.  I have used Family Search and found a marriage for Eileen Wickins - 10th May 1949  I think the registration number is 11397  or 10397 - writing was a bit blurred.  This marriage was for Manhatten Marriages  .  Now this shows on the Brides Page - how can I find out who she married? Is there a way of cross referencing  the number perhaps for the grooms page.  Thanks so much in anticipation.

The cert is 11397 and is available free online. Husband is John C Hutjens.

Hi Christine
Thanks so much for your help

Many thanks

The number you found is for a marriage license, which is what people took out when they planned to get married.  It is different from a marriage certificate, which is proof that they got married. 

This is a direct link to the license - https://a860-historicalvitalrecords.nyc.gov/view/11585837

Thanks to everyone who added help here - love this site.  I'm still not sure how those New York marriage certs work but they have great information on them.
My appreciation
