They will be scattered in with other legalities such as court notes, executors of wills to name a few. It is not the actual marriage license, but it will have the date it was granted and to whom it was granted to. That is a close as you are going to get for a marriage record. The same goes for marriage licenses granted in books (1) and (2). They are the Effingham County Misc. Records – Ordinary's Office books (one & two).
