Ogle County, Illinois, released its official record of marriage licenses issued during October. The document lists 36 couples who completed the application process with the county clerk. Most applicants resided within the county's borders, though several couples included partners from neighboring states or nearby Illinois towns.
Residents of Rockford and Rochelle represented the largest groups on the list. Pairs from these cities included William Havens and Anna Derosso, Carl Stanley and Lisa Kemmer, and Scott Barker and Victoria Boggus. Other local matches included Adrian Hueramo and Krystal Baez of Rochelle, as well as Fabian Hueramo and Cora Martinez, also of Rochelle. In Rockford, Levi Nelson of Epworth, Iowa, and Kyana Hord of Rock Island also appeared on the register.
Couples from Dixon made up another substantial portion of the October filings. Residents such as Matthew Mach and Sierra Serrano, Ross Whalen and Abigail Murray, and Robert Caron Jr. and Hannah Halfacre all obtained licenses in that city. Noah Eells of Dubuque, Iowa, and Rachel Barrett of Dixon also joined the list, marking one of the few cross-state pairings from the northern Illinois and Iowa border region.
Applicants from smaller communities in the county were also included. Deven Kenerson of Mt. Morris and Emily Millan of Oregon appeared alongside Joseph Rico and Stephanie Wheeler, both of Oregon. Other pairs from the western part of the county included James Knight of Ashton and Rebekah Lewis of Amboy, as well as Sean Lauer of Ashton and Reagan Sanders of Oswego. Aaron Pokoj and Lauren Streba of Hoffman Estates, located further north, also secured licenses through Ogle County.
The list further details marriages from towns like Byron, Malta, and Winnebago. Austin Blume and Elizabeth Boudin of Byron joined John Vitale and Christine Nolan, also of Byron. In Malta, Benjamin Engelkens and Brynn Ganz completed their paperwork. From Winnebago, Joshua Swisher and Morgan Bonnell of Oregon, along with Braeden Hanners and Julia Mitchell, added to the monthly total.
Couples from the eastern side of the county and nearby villages also appear in the records. Gage Welker and Jenna Truesdell of Rock Falls, Sean Gould and Nicole Manering of Byron, and Patrick Yarolem and Kaitlyn Childers of Davis Junction all filed in October. The final entries include Brandon Ragogna and Olivia Allen of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and Corey Wagner and Rebekah Wilken, both of West Branch, Iowa.
The publication of these names is a standard administrative function for the Ogle County clerk's office. The list serves as a public record of the legal unions established within the jurisdiction during the third quarter of the final quarter of the year. No other demographic data or statistical analysis was included in the release.
