LDS: Digitizing Arkansas Marriage Records

Posted by admin on Oct 20, 2009

Arkansas marriage records from 1837 to 1957 are part of a volunteer project to put them in a free online database with a searchable index linked to digital images of the original certificates.

The collection includes 442,058 records linked to 199,431 digital images of the original marriage certificates. The records represent the counties of Ahsley, Baxter, Boone, Chicot, Clay, Crittenden, Desha, Crew, Fulton, Jackson, Johnson, Lee, Logan, Madison, Monroe, Montgomery, Nevada, Perry and Pike.

The first fruits of the effort can be searched at FamilySearch.org by clicking on Search Records, then on Record Search pilot.

Those interested in volunteering to help with the Arkansas project need Internet access and can do so at indexing.familysearch.org.
