MARR: Russell County, 1826-1865, G's

Russell Co., KY Marriages, 1826-1865 - Gaar-Guy
Compilation copyright 1985 Gary L. Flanagan

I originally compiled this data during 1984-1985 from the original
documents in the Russell Co., KY Courthouse. The contents were
transcribed onto index cards, which were transcribed into typewritten
form in 1985. The Web version consists of files scanned from the typed
document. While I am proofreading this material and comparing it to the
typed version as I make it available on the Web, it is subject to error
at the time of transcription, typing, and scanning. I apologize for any
errors in transcription and will correct any if proper documentation is
provided (i.e., photocopies of the records); I will also be glad to
consider adding pertinent notes.

The format is as follows:

Groom's name, bride's name. Date. Person performing the marriage. Date
of bond, surety. Witnesses. Other information (parentage, notes, etc.)
Book-page.

For example:
Brown, Berryman (Benjamin) G. to Sarah E. Downey. December 20, 1855.
Married by Wm. W. Bernard, M.G., at John Downey, Sr.'s. Bond: Dec. 19,
1855, James S. Bernard and Sherrod W. Downey as sureties. Witnesses:
Sherrod Downey, Dick Wilson, John Downey, Sr. 2-95,96.

The groom in this example is Berryman G. Brown. The bride is Sarah E.
Downey. The marriage was on Dec. 20, 1855. The marriage was performed by
Wm. W. Bernard at John Downey's. The bond was date Dec. 19, 1855 with
James S. Bernard and Sherrod W. Downey as the sureties. The witnesses
were Sherrod Downey, Dick Wilson, and John Downey, Sr. The documents are
in Book 2, pages 95-96 in the Russell County Courthouse.

I hope that this information is useful to others undertaking
genealogical research.
