Does anyone have access to MN and / or PA marriage records? I'm trying to
find out when John Papst , born 1871, married Maria (Mary) Pimperl. Any help
would be appreciated. thanks

Going by the 1930 census, the information for John and Mary shows that
they both came to the US in 1910. Mary's information shows that she was
wed to John when she was 19, and she's 41 in the 1930 census, giving
them a marriage year of approximately 1908, which, if the 1910
immigration date is correct, means that they were wed in Austria, and
not in the United States. Their son John, Jr., is listed as being 5/12
years of age, and born in Minnesota, so John and Mary were living in
Minnesota for at least that length of time.

There are a John and Mary Papst living in Pennsylvania in the 1920
census, but ages don't match the ones of the John and Mary Papst in
Minnesota in the 1930 census. However, the John and Mary Papst in
Pennsylvania are shown as having immigrated to the US from Austria and
Hungary (John from Poland/Austria, speaking Polish, and Mary from
Hungary). All of their children are shown born in Pennsylvania: Anna,
aged 6, Tony, aged 4 10/12, Carl, 2 4/12, and Helen, 3/12. They are
living in Stowe, Allegheny County, PA. Also, both John and Mary were
naturalized in 1913.

If the John and Mary Papst of Pennsylvania in the 1920 census are the
ones you're looking for, then it's most likely that they were wed in
Pennsylvania. But if the John and Mary Papst of Minnesota in the 1930
census are the ones you're looking for, then they weren't married here.
It's still possible that it's the same couple, too.

Hope that helps,

Cathy
