The original poster was a bit misleading but I'm happy that she found additional information. Those are the kinds of 'finds' that we all hope to experience!

I "think" what the original poster meant was that when they looked at an Ancestor's individual file at the National Archives (not online), there was a copy of a marriage certificate along with other papers in that file. I once found a family Bible page in a Rev. War Pension file. The family had submitted it as proof of relationships, I suppose, so they could get a pension. It was a lucky find for me. The Selected Rev. War Pension files are online at Heritage Quest. They may also be found on microfilm at large public libraries and at the National Archives centers.
