Yes, I'm here in Shelby Co. I assume that it means from date of
application. Maybe Phyllis is better acquainted with it since she does the
marriage look-ups.

Would that 30 day period be from date of publication or from date of
applying? Seems it would be from date of applying rather than the other
instance. Melinda, you are in Shelby county, aren't you? Would you know
this type of wording to be taken either way or ??

Do you think that it might have to do with the fact that marriage
licenses
are only good for 30 days and it's possible that they didn't
want it
published until they knew it happened?

I think that "Do not pub" is explained in the dates for the application
and
the marriage. They probably knew it would not be for another month
and did
not
want everyone to know prematurely. Does that make sense? I have never seen
that myself, but I usually only searched marriages before 1900.
