Marriages

One of the main goals for genealogists is finding marriage information about their ancestors.

Over the past few decades, thanks to volunteers, librarians and archivists, a great number of indexes to marriage collections have been provided for free online. These searchable indexes provide specific marriage license, bond, and certificate information, and sometimes scanned images of the actual marriage documents themselves. These free online collections have hundreds of millions of records in them in total.

There are a great number of online and offline collections that may include marriage information that are not included in the lists below. These different types can be found in 27 Ways to Find Ancestor Marriage Information.

The lists below are specific marriage indexes and record collections that are available for free online for each of the states.

Good Luck and Happy Hunting!
