I will use this page to post photos and other items sent to me from researchers with a connection to Arapahoe County.  If you have items to submit, please send to me and documents or photos with an explanation as to what and who are depicted in the material.

Hello,
 
I have a copy of my husband's great-grandparents marriage license from Arapahoe County that I would be happy to share.  Charles Otto Snyder and Mary Ellen Foley were married at Sacred Heart Church in Denver, CO on August 22, 1898.  I also have a photo that was taken of them right around the time they got married. 

Mary Ellen was a native of Pennsylvania but moved to Colorado as one of the famous Harvey Girls, where she met and married Charles who worked for the railroad.  After they married they moved to Rawlins
, Wyoming, so the marriage license is the only record I have from Arapahoe County.
 
Thank you for all your hard work on the GenWeb collection!
 
Warmest regards,
 
Karen Kennelly
