Happy Valentine's Day to All! Just in the nick of time for Valentine's Day, I have mounted on DCOWeb.org Billy Baker's latest gift to the Darke Co./Randolph Co. researchers! While he was transcribing the obituaries from the Union City Evening Times and the Union City Times-Gazette, he also transcribed the marriage license applications that were published in the newspaper between June 1934 and Dec. 1941. There are 1,738 applications which were made in Winchester, IN. They cover people from a wide geographical area. The paper published the names and ages of the applicants, their occupations, and their places of residence. Remember that these are only applications - probably some of the marriages didn't take place. So, as Billy says in the introduction, the application listing should be used as another "clue" and the Court Records should be checked. Again, I'm very grateful to Billy for all of his hard work and dilligence with his projects to aid us in our research! Hope you all have a Great Day! --Jane http://randolph.dcoweb.org/UCmarlic1.htm
