Marriage Records
FRANKLIN
COUNTY MARRIAGE BONDS for years 1785-1865 are loose unbound documents. These
records have been
microfilmed
and are available at the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives.
This microfilm was used
to obtain
the information presented at this site.
The name
of bride and groom was abstracted as it appears on the original document.
No attempt has been
made to correct the spelling accepted by today's standard. Always check
every spelling variation of
your
surname. Additional information such as; bondsman, parental consent,
guardian and witness may
be available by viewing microfilm of the original marriage
bond.
FRANKLIN
COUNTY MARRIAGE CERTIFICATES, Books 1 thru 4 for years 1827-1879
are available on microfilm located at the
Kentucky
Department for Libraries and Archives. Unlike the marriage bond a marriage
certificate contains information about the
ceremony;
when it took place and by whom. A couple may have obtained their marriage
bond in one county, but married elsewhere.
The microfilm
for the marriage certificates is very light and difficult to read for some
years. In many cases some names are completely
illegible.
No attempt has been made to correct the spelling accepted by today's
standards. Always check every spelling variation of
your
surname. The name of bride and groom was abstracted as it appears on
the original document. Additional information such as;
name
of minister and place marriage was performed may be available by viewing
microfilm of the original document.
