Los Angeles County early birth records, I believe 1860 something to 1904 are recorded in books by father's last name. It lists details such as mother's name, sex, single birth, alive and I believe the very rare name of child. Los Angeles County early marriages lists primarily "Groom of said age native to place who resides in place married Bride of said age native to place who resides in place. I so-and-son swear I married them and witness of residence place verifies this". I hope that is not to confusing. You will get their names, ages, birthplaces and where resided, as well as a witness or two with their residence and the person who performed the ceremony. Whe I state residence, it is only the city. I have seen once a notation about the woman having been a widow, but that is very rare.
