Talk:Ohio County Marriage Records - FamilySearch Historical Records

Ohio Marriages
I was unable to determine the source of the original marriage records that I found so that I could cite the source as suggested in the Wiki article. In my particular case, I found two records for the marriage of Charles Blue and Eliza Davis on 26 May 1832. Both records contain the same information, but appear to be recorded in two adjoining counties, Auglaize and Logan. I am uncertain how to accurately determine the source of the two records from what is given.

We have checked the marriage record of Charles Blue and Eliza Davis on 26 May 1832. There is only one record. The marriage took place in Logan County, Ohio in 1832. The county of Auglaize was created 14 February 1848 from Allen, Mercer, Darke, Hardin, Logan, Shelby, and Van Wert Counties.

The source is microfilm #534835, Birth applications 1941-1967; births 1867-1908, 1940; deaths 1867-1909, 1940; marriages 1818-1966, authors: Ohio. Probate Court (Logan County), Microfilm of originals at the County Courthouse in Bellefontaine, Ohio. Since the microfilm includes records from 1848 when the county of Auglaize was created that county is also noted as you saw on the record details.
