There should be a record but it won't tell you much -- basically so & so
married on such & such a day and it'd be signed by the clerk. There are no
affidavits in Fountain at that time although neighboring Montgomery has
them. All counties did at one time but most destroyed them many years ago.
If you want a copy, send to Clerk's Office in Covington Courthouse but if
you'd just want the Book and Date for the record so to speak, perhaps either
someone on the list who has the marriage records at home could let you know
or you might contact the West Central IN Library -- they're great to help -
here's the contact information for them

Subject: [InFounta] Looking for the marriage record of John GeorgeESTERBROOK
and Mary Abigail FOSTER
Hello All,
I'm new to this list and new to researching in Fountain County, Indiana
so I am not sure what type of records are available in Fountain County.
Per family records, my great-grandfather, John George ESTERBROOK, and my
great-grandmother, Mary Abigail FOSTER, were married in Attica, Fountain
County, Indiana on 14 Jan 1875.
I am looking for some type of record of this marriage, perhaps a marriage
license or a church record. Can anyone tell me what records are available
in Fountain County during this time period and how I might go about
accessing them?
Many thanks for your help, Frank
