| In October 1902, the Allen County
Courthouse suffered a fire that destroyed all the
Marriage Certificates, Marriage Bonds and Marriage
Licenses from 1815-1902. What did survive is a partial
Marriage Register where the presiding official recorded
the event. The existing Marriages were documented and
published by Miss Ona Willoughby and Mr. Erskine Garrison
in years past, as well as recorded in some Vital Records
prior to 1903. This project is an effort to record
marriages not found in the previous
mentioned documents, but have been
located in Newspapers, Bible Records, Church
Records, etc. If you have marriage information
to submit, that is not previously recorded
in the existing marriage records, we
encourage the sharing of that information. This will be
an ongoing project with your help. Please contribute your
record by sending an email to: Sharon Tabor with
the subject: Lost Records.

records which have been used to verify number of years
