Forsyth County - Probate Court - Marriage Records
Scope and Contents
This series contains original unbound marriage records which consist of both licenses and certificates included on the same document. Information on the licenses includes name of the groom, name of the bride and date license was issued. The certificates give the date of the marriage, name of the Ordinary and name of the person performing the wedding ceremony. On the back of most of the records is the book and page where the records are recorded although no effort has been made to compare the completeness of this file with the recorded copies in the Marriage Record volumes of the county. Included at the end of Box 3 is a folder containing marriage licenses from Cherokee, Cobb, Dawson, Gwinnett, Hall and Milton counties. There is a folder of miscellaneous records including a tax receipt, an affidavit and a letter. The finding aid merely shows the general contents of each box.
