You can also request a copy from IRAD...Carbondale holds Madison Co marriage records from the early 1800's until 1900. They DO charge a photocopy fee...$1 for up to 4 copies...and you can only request 2 lookups at a time. It usually takes less than 2 weeks from the time I put the request in my mailbox to the copies show up. If you found the into on the statewide marriage index, copy that into your request...it makes the response go faster.
