What information is available?
Records of marriages
before 1966 are located in the county clerk's office of the county in which
the marriage occurred.
From 1966 - 2002
Marriage Index Records (1966
- 2002)
The information that
is available on the marriage record indexes includes the following:
File number,
husband's name and age, wife's full name and age, marriage date, county
code, and county
This is not the
actual certificate or license, only an index that points to the actual
certificate or license at the
County court
house.
Marriage indexes are
not themselves legal documents and are prepared only as aids in locating
the records upon which they are based. If you believe that an
original marriage license contains an error, you may contact the County
Clerk's office in the county where the marriage license is filed.
The Bureau of Vital Statistics website lists the addresses of all
County
Clerks' offices in Texas.
