Cook County, Illinois Marriage Indexes, 1912-1942

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier index.
The Cook County Marriage Index page lists bride Mae Chill and groom Norman B. Wood, serial 0699219, dated 06-16-1915. The date and surname match the claim. "Mae" for Meta Ida Amalia is plausible but unproven, so the entry is consistent rather than conclusive. The certificate or the spouse's name in the database would settle it.
Matches: Bride entry "CHILL, MAE" with groom "WOOD, NORMAN B", serial 0699219, dated 06-16-1915 (16 June 1915); Surname Chill matches; The date matches the claimed 16 June 1915 exactly; Cook County, Illinois covers Chicago
Limits: The index gives the bride's first name only as "Mae", not Meta Ida Amalia. Matching her depends on Mae being a nickname or variant, and the page does not show that.; The claim does not name a spouse, so the groom Norman B. Wood cannot be checked against anything.; The index covers Cook County and does not name the city, so Chicago is assumed.; Other Chill brides on the page (Bertha, Edna A, Elsie, Helen, Isabelle A, Louise) have different dates, so only the Mae entry fits.; This is an index page, not the marriage certificate, and it gives no ages or parents to confirm identity.
