WorldVitalRecords.com - Abstracts from Norfolk City Marriage Bonds, 1797 - 1850 $

Abstracts from Norfolk City Marriage Bonds [1797-1850]. George Holbert Tucker. (1934). Compiled originally in 1934, Mr. Tucker's transcription of marriage bonds for the city of Norfolk, Virginia is the most complete collection of these records we know of and one of the most painstakingly assembled. The core of the volume consists of 3,600 marriage bonds, arranged in chronological order, as found in the Norfolk Borough Court House. Typically, the bonds give the full names of the bride and groom and their securities (sometimes family members). All persons named in the bonds are indexed at the back of the book. Mr. Tucker went to the extra length of establishing the correct spellings of all surnames and the betrotheds' actual fact of marriage by consulting the ministers' returns corresponding to the period of the bonds that are on file in the Norfolk Corporation Court. In perhaps a third of the entries, the bonds are annotated with notes from the returns disclosing, for example, the name of the bride's father--who often was the security-- the name of the officiating minister, the church where the ceremony was performed, and so on. It was during his examination of the ministers' returns that the author discovered the early Norfolk City burial lists and baptismal lists of the Rev. Robert S. Symes of Christ Protestant Episcopal Church, 1809-1816. These two lists, naming 500 parents and children with the date of baptism, and 300 decedents with their dates of death, respectively, are also included in the body of the work.

WorldVitalRecords.com - Frederick County, Virginia, Marriages 1771 - 1825 $

Frederick County, Virginia, Marriages 1771-1825. Eliza Timberlake Davis. (1941). Frederick County, with Augusta County, at one time embraced all of West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The 4,000 marriage records compiled in this volume (mostly bonds and ministers' returns) should be of particular interest to researchers whose forebears crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains.

WorldVitalRecords.com - Lancaster County, Virginia, Marriage Bonds, 1652 - 1850 $

Lancaster County, Virginia, Marriage Bonds, 1652-1850. Ida J. Lee. (1965). A wealth of genealogical information is contained in this modest volume. Altogether about 4,000 prospective brides and grooms are listed with dates and, sometimes, names of parents. For the convenience of the researcher the marriages are recorded in one alphabetical sequence by the surname of the groom. Additional important genealogical information such as the statement of widowhood and the place of residence is supplied if the information appeared in the original marriage bond. Lancaster County was formed from the parent counties of Northumberland and York in 1651. It was itself the parent of old Rappahannock County (formed in 1656) and Middlesex County (formed in 1673). Clearly, then, this work documents marriages from an important area and one larger than might at first be supposed.

WorldVitalRecords.com - Marriages of Goochland County, Virginia, 1733 - 1815 $

Marriages of Goochland County, Virginia, 1733-1815. Kathleen Booth Williams. (1960). Goochland County, Virginia was carved out of Henrico County in 1728 and was the parent, direct or indirect, of nine other Virginia counties. The Goochland County marriage register upon which this work is based was originally compiled by the staff of the Virginia State Library and subsequently transcribed by Mrs. Williams. In all, it refers to some 3,000 brides and grooms and to another 2,000 associated persons (parents, sureties, and witnesses) mentioned in the register.

WorldVitalRecords.com - Marriages of Mecklenburg County [Virginia] from 1765 to 1810 $

Marriages of Mecklenburg County [Virginia] from 1765 to 1810. Stratton Nottingham. (1928). Mecklenburg County in south-central Virginia was formed from Lunenburg County in 1764 and today adjoins the North Carolina border opposite the counties of Granville, Vance, and Warren. This volume contains the only official record of extant marriages from Mecklenburg County. It was compiled from loose papers, inasmuch as no marriage register prior to 1850 is known to exist. The work consists of some 2,000 marriages in all and is arranged alphabetically according to the name of the groom. Each entry furnishes the names of the contracting parties, date of the bond, and name(s) of sureties. On occasion, the abstracts also indicate the bride and groom's address and/or the names of their parents. This work of vital importance to persons interested in Virginia genealogy concludes with a complete name index to the brides.
