I can't figure out the city for this record. It is under marriage place.

    Chicago. It's also printed on the document.

    The Marriage Place is indexed as Chicago, Cook, Illinois. This is another case of someone not reading the Project Instructions.

    @erutherford The OP asked for help in indexing the record. It has not been indexed yet.

    Funny how it shows up as a review batch for me.

    Yes, it's a review batch and United States needs to be taken out of the marriage place.

    Are you not supposed to ask for help on review batches?

    I forgot to mention which image. It was image 3 that is really confusing to figure out.

    You are more than welcome to ask questions about review batches. For Image 3, the Marriage Place is a church, so it will be indexed as Cook, Illinois. We do not index churches, buildings (such as City Hall) or addresses. Now if a church contains a city, we will index the city. Ex: Holy Name Cathedral, Chicago. This will be indexed as Chicago, Cook, Illinois.

    Queen of All Saints Basilica is the location.

    "erutherford" is correct. We only index geographical locations unless told to enter church names. Family Search uses city, county, state, etc. names for locations in a search.
