I tried a lookup for you at: http://www.digitalarchives.wa.gov

I could only get the statics which does not give parents names. Here is the email address for the Northwest Genealogical Society: research@newgs.org. they can give you cantact information for the Stevens County Courthouse where all the marriage statics books are held.

Larry,
In the hundreds of postings you have placed on Rootsweb, I have answered several. I've indicated that you must provide more information on the person for which you seek. I've suggested that you obtain Ancestry.com to run census checks either in a subscription bases for home, or at your local library. Also, your local library might have Heritage Quest, another provider of the US Census.

As far as Levi Brown, the 1910 census had a Levi W. Brown, married to Meriam, living in East Pomeroy, Garfield, WA. He was born about 1853 in Oregon.

As far as the ones you seek, try http://www.digitalarchives.wa.gov/default.aspx They're marriage is listed there. You would have to order the marriage record from the Stevens County Auditor. I've outlined this procedure before also.

All of the early marriage records for Stevens County have been moved to the Eastern Washington Archives at Cheney. After determining that your folks actually did get married in Stevens County by checking the index at ... http://www.rootsweb.com/~wasteven/marriage.htm (your people are there), then you can email the archives through the link on that same page. They will do a search and provide a copy for a nominal fee. Be sure to ask for a copy of the "marriage statistics" as this is the record that has the most useful information....Susan, researcher for NewGS

thanks for the pointer. the only problem is that I have Levi BROWN b. 1880 in Canada parents George and Margaret. Levi and his brothers went to Washington State, around Douglas, Chelan, Great Falls, Whitlash areas. Brothers were Samuel, John, Joshua, Robert. Levi was to have a ranch in the Sweet Grass area. he either married Eva SHRIEKA or Margaret ATKINS. which one is correct. I need the names of the parents to find out which is correct. the 1910 census shows L.L. BROWN living with Eva and family?? unknown where the were before or what happened to Levi after. my brick wall

The marriage statistics should list the parents of the bride and groom. The license and the marriage certificate will not. That's why I suggest asking for the marriage statistics. May help answer your question.
