The marriage book at the courthouse (1838-1875) was created by James J. Martin, clerk as ordered by the county court at its July term 1883 court. Martin’s transcription was taken from the original documents.During the course of many years of research, I have discovered the discrepancies given below. I’m sure there are more. Many of the brides have had a previous marriage. I have not included those in this list. I encourage you to submit any corrections that you may have found for inclusion on this web page.<\/p>\n
