==General Information==
 
There is no index to Wayne County, OH divorces until the early 1900s.  Prior to 1843, divorces were recorded in the Supreme Court.  From 1843 to 1852, they were recorded in Chancery records.  From 1852 to 1894, divorces were recorded in Common Pleas Court records.  Between 1894 and 1911, they may have been recorded in either Common Pleas Court or Probate Court.  From 1911 to 1914, they were probably recorded in Common Pleas Court unless the county had established a Domestic Relations Court.  By 1914, most counties had established a Domestic Relations Court.  This is where they remain.
