The 1900 U.S. Federal Census said that Albertina and Frank Ward had been married 24 years, so that means (if the years married part is correct) they were married about 1876. Their first child was born in July 1875 so that marriage may have happened in 1875 or so.

I checked the Illinois Marriage Index to find a more specific date. They married 9 September 1875 in Winnebago County.

This is the site with the Illinois Marriage Index. Click on Databases at the top of the page to find even more databases for Illinois.

This page tells how to get marriage records. (Don't forget that churches also kept marriage records of their own which are different from ones kept by the government.)
