Re: marraige record search
The only way that you can find out if she was married in Washington State is to go to the County Auditor of the County where she may have obtained her marriage license. Once she obtained that license, she could get married anywhere in Washington State. If you do not know which county, you'll have to make inquiry with the State Dept. of Vital Statistics in Olympia and do a records search there. However, if she got married out of state, e.g., in Nevada (Las Vegas) you may have to resort to using an out of state national records search company. Good Luck!
