This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CBB.2ACE/5877.1 Message Board Post: Hello, I will take a bet from you that I am further away from Knox Co.than you are and I am able to help people most every day. Distance has nothing to do with it. One purchases transcribed records, one subscribes to paid genealogy sites, one joins genealogy societies, one makes phone calls, etc. etc. Most important, one checks to see who else on the Knox Co. Message Board is searching for the same surnames as you are. Where you place a query, there is a search line on the upper left-hand corner. You can type in a surname and the system will bring up other queries where that surname is mentioned. What you need to do is to post on the Message Board the names and the approx. dates of the marriages you are seeking. Marriage Book A covers from 1800 to 1850. There are many other books covering different time periods. If you are looking for a bond in this early period, I doubt it is there. Many of the old marriage records disappeared years ago. Have you checked out the main Knox co. website administered by Cassy SOMMERS? She has posted many, many records. When you post the name/s of the persons you are seeking, be sure to include some approx. date/s of birth and/or death, if known. Also state how you are related to the persons you are seeking. This will enable others to know where you come in down the line. In any case, you need to post what it is that you are looking for. Perhaps someone will have an answer for you. Otherwise, you could go to: http://www.usgenweb Click on: Kentucky There you will find the names and addresses and I think phone numbers for the court clerks. You could simply call to see if something is available. Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA
