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.
