Henderson County Marriage Records

Henderson County, Tennessee

Marriage Records Through Dec 1900

These data were transcribed by Harry E. Barnes from the work of Johnny D. Walker entitled "Index of Marriages of the Nineteenth Century (1893-1900) of Henderson County, Tennessee", which was printed in 1989 in extremely limited quantities. There are 1245 marriages listed here, including all of the earliest surviving Marriage Book (Book 2) which begins in 1893, all of Book 3 and portions of Book 4 (up to 31 Dec 1900). There are also 55 marriage records which predate the 1893 surviving courthouse records. These early records, some dating to 1822, were taken from the Goodspeed and Powers histories of Henderson County.

In a narrow column of data to the right of the day of the month, some marriages have an "ne" or "nr" notation. An "ne" means that the original marriage bond records that the intended marriage was not executed. An "nr" means that the original bond was not returned to the courthouse, and consequently the date listed in the table is the date of the bond, not necessarily the date of the marriage ceremony.
