Selected U.S./International Marriage Records, 1340-1980

This comprehensive index contains marriage records of about 1.4 million individuals from all fifty U.S. states and thirty-two countries around the world. These records, which span over 500 years, were compiled by professional genealogist Bill Yates over a period of 34 years. This unique collection was sourced from a variety of materials, including family group sheets and electronic databases. The original information was extracted from diverse sources, such as pedigree charts, family history articles, inquiries, letters, Bible records, wills, biographies, and handwritten genealogies.

The listings in this index can provide detailed information, such as the full names of the bride and groom, their birth dates, the year and/or month of the marriage, and the location where the marriage took place.
