Notes For Marriages Please READ
These are now posted to a website, due to space issues on free space I have posted them on another site I have. Hopefully in the next few months I will be able to pay for space and keep everything on one site. Bills and like come first.
IF YOU DO NOT SEE YOUR SURNAME I SUGGEST YOU GO TO http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=4 FAMILYSEARCH.ORG'S PILOT PROGRAM. CLICK ON SEARCH OR BROWSE OUR COLLECTIONS AND SCROLL DOWN TO KENTUCKY MARRIAGES. If your name does not come up I would try a year range. Misspellings I have found are pretty drastic. Familysearch is doing it right by keeping it free so let them know they ought to keep it that way.

This is what I can tell you (from personal experience) in the 1890's; you can get a marriage license, in the early 1900's you can get marriage BONDS. This is from personal experience. Bonds do not tell you much though... These can be obtained from Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives(KDLA) http://www.kdla.ky.gov/ "Research Services> Form: Marriage Record Request". They request that you narrow down your marriage time frame to a five year window. They may be able to assist in the missing index years, since they are the main holders of the archives.*****I am not sure where Familysearch.org is getting their data, but it could be directly from the files of KDLA for all I know. They also seem to have the index for the missing death records, and births more or less. Browse and Tinker with names and dates. Their collection is pretty vast for the various states.
