I have done the best with the handwriting that I can these are less than perfect records that I am working with. 2. The index doesn't always match the entry and the license doesn't always match the minister's or JP's return. 3. Sometimes I have put duplicate entries for the same record in order to cover the possibilities and I wrote everything the way it was spelled in the record instead of the index. 4. Names need to be researched with spelling variations. I have tried to double and triple check the records I struggled with and I feel good that I have done all that I can to make the record as accurate as possible. 5. THERE ARE TWO PAGES THAT DID NOT GET MICROFILMED. They are pages 104 and 105. They way I configured the columns for this data entry, it wouldn't let me put a partial date for these marriages. They were probably in 1848 but, that is not always true as these marriage records are not completely chronological. I think ministers came to the courthouse periodically and entered the marriages that they had performed since the last time they were there. Sometimes it is as much as 4 years out of order. Either that or they just wrote down the wrong year but, I have no way of knowing. I have transcribed them as they read. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bride Groom Date Page Adams, Elizabeth Pledger, Gaines 25 Jun 1839 3 Adams, Martha Dry, Daniel M. 11 Nov 1841 21 Adams, Tabitha Jane Dean, Henry W. 08 Nov 1853 217 Adkin, Lucinda Jackson, Tillman W. 25 Dec 1853 241 Aikins, Elizabeth Thompson, Evin 08 Feb 1850 148 Akridge, Martha Elizabeth Horn, James R. 28 Dec 1856 313 Akridge, Nancy Hinton, John 18 Jul 1848 113 Allen, Elizabeth Burgess, Nimrod 24 Jul 1859 376 Allen, Emily A.
