This database is an index to approximately 838,000 individuals who were married in select areas of Massachusetts between 1633 and 1850. A complete list of which counties are included and the years for which there are records represented in this index is provided below. Information that may be found in this database for each individual includes:
- Name
- Gender
- Spouse's name
- Marriage date
- Marriage location
- Source
Marriage records are great sources for genealogists because they document an individual in a particular place and time as well as provide details about that person's marriage.
It is important that you use the information found in this database to locate your ancestor in the original records that this index references. Usually more information is available in the records themselves than is found in an index. For example, marriage records sometimes provide the birth dates and places of the bride and groom, their parents' names, their addresses, and witnesses' names, in addition to the information listed in this index.
