How Do I Search the Collection?

Compare the information about the ancestors in the list to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct family or person. You may need to compare the information about more than one person to find your ancestor.

What Do I Do Next?
When you have located your ancestor’s marriage record, carefully evaluate each piece of information about them. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details that can lead you to other records about your ancestors.

I Found Who I was Looking for, What Now?

 * This collection is an index only. Use the GS number found in the record you've found and put it into the FamilySearch Catalog under 'Film/Fiche Number' category. This will send you to where you can find more information on looking at the actual record that the index came from. The actual record may contain more information that wasn't indexed.
 * Don't forget to search before and after the date of the record you found for other children's births in the family!
