Email NOTE from Michigan Library in Lansing:  Library of Michigan Reference Desk <librarian@michigan.gov> Date: 01/07/2004 4:40 PM

 

Thank you for your email requesting assistance information about your family history from the Library of Michigan.

 

Although your family has said that Ida Richter was married at the age of 13, Michigan Law has always stated that the earliest age a person may be married is 16 and  parental permission is required.  If you wish more information on this, you may contact the Law Library.  The email address is lmlawlib@michigan.gov.  They also may be able to respond to your question about sealed records in the county probate records.

 

AuGres was originally part of Bay County but in 1883 Arenac County was split from Bay County.  I would suggest that you contact Arenac County for marriage records since you did not find the marriage in Bay County.  Is it possible that the marriage occurred later?  Ida appears on the 1900 Federal Decennial Census living with her second husband, William Patterson, and her son, Earl Wetmore.  The son was 13 and the census indicates that he was born in 1887.  She and Patterson had been married for 6 years at that time.  The image of that census page is attached and their names appear on lines 20-22.

 

 

The Library of Michigan is unable to do extensive research. A list of researchers affiliated with local genealogical societies, who will do research for a fee, is available on our web site at http://www.michigan.gov/hal/0,1607,7-160-17449_18635_18647-50986--,00.html. The Library of Michigan is unable to assume responsibility for the researcher's work. A printed version of the researchers’ list will be sent you upon request if you provide us your mailing address.

 

Your interest in the Library of Michigan's Abrams Historical Collection is appreciated.  We wish you success with your research and hope you will be able to visit the Michigan Library and Historical Center.
