NEW JERSEY MARRIAGES Contributed to the USGenWeb Archives by by Patricia M. Bergener (fmlyhstry@verizon.net) (c) 1999. Copyright. All Rights Reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://www.usgwarchives.net/nj/njfiles.htm ********************************************************* NOTE: The Contributor is not able to do lookups. Early New Jersey Marriages - Extracts from microfilm copies of original marriage bonds in possession of NJ Dept. Of Education, Division of State Library Archives & History, filmed in 1966. "Marriages are from various counties, and are arranged in groups by surname, but not alphabetical within groups." (Family History Library Catalog; 0888701-0888710) I have capitalized all surnames for ease in identification. When there was a discrepancy with a name in the body of the bond and the signature, the difference of the signature is in parentheses. NOTE: these are only "alphabetized" by the first letter of the GROOM's surname, you have to go thru all of them when searching for info on women, which is why I started this in the first place.
