This project is an attempt to recreate some of the marriage records of Bledsoe County which were destroyed in the 1909 fire. Some records are from my research and some from the research of correspondents. Bible records, queries posted to the Bledsoe County Query pages, have been utilized. Some dates are merely estimates from census records and the age of the first child. Some wives surnames have been gleaned from land records, obituaries and other miscellaneous family records. Where possible a source is given as well as a contact person with whom the researcher can correspond.
The quality of the reference depends entirely on the source from which it was originally discovered. Despite the problems of documentation, I would very much appreciate input from fellow researchers. Not only may you find cousins, but by submitting your information, you will add to an archive which can be used by present and future family historians.
If you would like to help, please submit information on your Bledsoe County Marriages along with a source and your e-mail address.
Thank you,
Nancy
