More details to this question:
We got married October 15 or 16, 1965 and was never given a marriage certificate. I called the county clerk's office and they have no record.

It could have ramifications. Marriage has tax and estate issues. I would like more details to form a firm opinion, but if you have identified a potential problem it should be cared for before it causes harm.
