* North Carolina Marriage Bonds, 1741-1868
(Database Online - Ancestry.com) :
When planning to marry, the prospective groom took out a
bond from the clerk of the court in the county where the
bride had her usual residence as surety that there was no
legal obstacle to the proposed marriage. On file in the
North Carolina State Archives are 170,000 marriage bonds,
covering the years 1741-1868. These records were
abstracted by the Works Progress Administration. Most of
the bonds contain the following information: groom's name,
bride's name, date of bond, bondsmen, witnesses. For those
with ancestors in early North Carolina, this will be a
helpful database.
This is one database among thousands available to
