INDIANA MARRIAGES, 1845-1920 (W.P.A.)


The Indiana Marriage Index is one of the most complete collections of
marriages

created by the Works Progress Administration. The WPA began to index vital

records county-by-county for the entire state, but the agency was abolished

before the indexing was completed. This database indexes marriages for 71 of
the

counties. Taken from copies of the original works from the WPA, these records

will prove useful for those seeking ancestors in Indiana.
