==General Marriage==

Marriage records usually began when the county was first formed.  In Wayne County, OH, this is 1812.  We have marriages in our department from 1812 thru 1951.  Marriages from 1812 thru part of 1898 can be found in the book titled, [https://wayne.bibliocommons.com/item/show/248560048_wayne_county,_ohio_marriage_index Index to Wayne County, OH Marriages 1813-1898] compiled by Bob and Esther Strock.  There is a groom index in the front and a bride index in the back.  Information included in the book includes the groom’s name, the bride’s name, date of marriage, and the official performing the wedding ceremony.  Also, the volume and page number of the marriage record on microfilm is listed.  An earlier version of this book was compiled by Richard Smith.  It is called, [https://wayne.bibliocommons.com/item/show/349268048_seventy-five_years_of_wayne_county,_ohio_marriages,_1813-1888 Seventy-Five Years of Wayne County, Ohio Marriages 1813-1888].

The USGenWeb project is another alternative to finding marriages in other counties and states.  This is a volunteer project that was started many years ago.  Most counties and states are represented through this project.  However, no county has complete records online.  You may visit [http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com Rootsweb] or [http://www.usgenweb.org US Genweb] to access these selective records.
