Message Board Post:
Most of the early marriages were recorded in Books which should still be at the Ripley
County Courthouse. You would need to contact the Clerk of the Court in Ripley County. If
it is done like here in Jennings then they just copy the information from the book on to a
certificate. I take digital photos of the original book pages. A marriage that early will
most likely have nothing but the date they applied for the license date of marriage and
who married them. Not much was required back then.
