    3. Hello Ava,   The LDS church  (Mormons) Family HIstory Centers have all the Marriage Bonds from N.C. from very early dates.  (1752)  I found all the records I need from those.  They are on Micro-fische and are filed by last name of Groom & also by Brides.  I understand they got these from the NC Archives & History Library.  So,,,, they should be at the Library in Raleigh.  Did you ask for the assistance of a genealogist who was on duty??     marty gujda martydar --- On Sun, 11/23/08, Ava H.

I noticed that, while the indexes and volumes holding the oldest records are dated from 1752, I could not find a single entry in the 1752-1911 index (I searched about ½ of it) for a record earlier than 1781. However, there are numerous records for 1781 and subsequently. I know that Orange County was originally formed in 1752. Does anyone know if records were actually being kept from that date and all records earlier than 1781 somehow lost or destroyed? Or did laws change around the 1781 timeframe that resulted in new records being kept in that year that just weren’t collected before then? Similarly, while marriage bonds (and a rare license or return) did appear from 1781, the earliest marriage register (with copied returns) that I was able to find is dated from 1851. Does anyone know if there are registers extant for the time period 1781-1850? I can try to call the NC Archives in Raleigh to find out tomorrow, but thought someone in D-OGS who is doing local research might have some idea. The OC deputy registrar didn’t seem to know.

    3. Thanks for the info Marty. I wasn't at the NC Archives. I was surveying the records at the Register of Deeds in Hillsborough. I'm doing this for a genealogy course and was supposed to be going to my "local vital records depository" to do this. I was told that all of the records in the Archives in Raleigh had been copied and were also there in Hillsborough both in photocopy and microfiche form. Did you actual find records prior to 1781? While the indexes and volumes SAY 1752-1911 on them, I could not find a single record dated from before 1781 in the index. There were plenty from 1781 on. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Martha Gujda Sent: Sunday, November 23, 2008 7:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NCDOGS] Question Re Marriage Records in Orange County Hello Ava,   The LDS church  (Mormons) Family HIstory Centers have all the Marriage Bonds from N.C. from very early dates.  (1752)  I found all the records I need from those.  They are on Micro-fische and are filed by last name of Groom & also by Brides.  I understand they got these from the NC Archives & History Library.  So,,,, they should be at the Library in Raleigh.  Did you ask for the assistance of a genealogist who was on duty??     marty gujda martydar --- On Sun, 11/23/08, Ava H.

    3. Ava, You'll need to verify this, but I think that the court records were buried for "safekeeping" during the Revolution, but when they were unearthed, they had been badly damaged. Some of the early material could be reconstructed, thus the 1752 date, but much of it was lost. I don't have any references on hand, so I'm relying on memories of research done a number of years back. Gwyneth --On Sunday, November 23, 2008 7:42 PM -0500 "Ava H.

    2. Ava H. Nackman
    3. Richard, Are you really sure that there ARE 1752 marriages in that index? I am curious, because the indexes that they had at the Vital Records Office in Hillsborough were LABELLED 1752-, but did not in actuality contain much from before 1781. Marty, I did speak to archivists in Raleigh, and they indicated that they did have microfilms of the earliest marriages, back to 1752, but did NOT have the originals of the very early ones. I found this odd, but the two archivists there at the time had no idea what had become of them. Perhaps the more experienced archivists who might know weren't around to ask at that time. Next time I am there I hope to pursue this a bit further.
