Each record contains the name of the groom, bride, date of marriage, location of marriage, witnesses and volume and page number where the original record can be found. Also included is a complete list of marriage officiates and where they performed their ceremonies. Although these are referred to as Death Records in the county book, they are actually the burial records filled out by the Undertaker.
