She is listed as Dessie Renner in the 1920 census in Tampico with a man named Fred Renner (listed as her husband) and Wilma Dulaney (her 5-year-old daughter). Wilma Dulaney was born in Burlington, Iowa in 1915. Dessie married another man (Charles Gilford Mott) in Manchester, Iowa in 1922, then moved to La Moille, IL and lived there until her death in 1983. I haven't found any marriage or other records of Fred Renner with Dessie... Do you have any suggestions for resources available that could help me in finding out more about their brief relationship (could have been any time between 1915-1922)? Thank you, Nicole Palsa

It is in the time frame that you mention. The person that requests this can mail us a brief request telling us the name of the groom, name of the bride and the license # is 15421. They need to include a copy of their drivers license along with their address to mail it to. The cost is $8 for a copy for genealogy. We will mail it out the day we receive the request here. Have a good week! Connie Landheer, Chief Deputy County Clerk 200 East Knox Street Morrison, IL 61270 phone - (815)772-5189 fax - (815)772-7673

I received the marriage certificate this week and it helped answer a lot of questions (and raised a few more!) Does the county have divorce records as well? Since this couple was living together in the 1920 census and the wife remarried in 1922, I’m guessing they divorced in that time period. Nicole

They lived in Hahnaman Township west of Tampico and the house is still there. They mostly farmed but also had a digging machine business for ditches etc. I was aware that he was married to a Goldie but had never heard about another wife. I have never been able to locate his grave in the Tampico Cemetery but for this isn't a marker.I have extensive information on the Renner family for William R Renner, Fred's grandfather was the first settler in Deer Grove. Four of Fred's uncles were in the Civil War. Two died and 2 returned. You may contact me at 815-622-8858 if you have additional questions etc.
