Here are a few CULLER marriages in the state of Ohio. All of these records are available at the County seat for the county in which the marriage took place and all of the records are available on microfilm at your nearest Family History Center. The database states that the date is the "marriage date," though it seems that a good many of the dates fall on a Thursday. Perhaps the date is actually the date the license was issued. I checked my great grandparents marriage record which was recorded in the family bible and it was on a Thursday, in 1877. Perhaps it is only in our recent times that marriages seem to take place on weekends. Would anyone else know if it was traditional to be married on a weekday rather than a weekend in previous centuries? CULLER, ABRAHAM J.

Sally Gustafson <sallyg@west.net> asked: > if it was traditional to be married on a weekday > rather than a weekend in previous centuries? ---------- It was perfectly acceptable to have a large, formal wedding through the week even as late as 1975. From what I have been able to asertain, the only reason that most are held on weekends today is because of the workplace situation being different, along with the fact that so many women now have paying jobs.
