    3. SOURCE:SOURCE: "Marriage Records of Knox County, Ohio, 1808-1875", published by the Knox County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society, 1995. Compiled by Richard DeLauder, Mount Vernon, OH. Indexed by Franklin Miller, Jr., Gambier, OH. "Any given marriage might be recorded in three different books at the County Court House. 1. The "White Books," large white-bound ledger books at the County Court House. 2. The "Red Books," a series of smaller red-bound books, used between 1808 and early 1861. 3. The 'certificates," loose forms filled out for many marriages and filed in packets roughly according to dates, from 1809 - 1875. These sources, for which certificates were found are indicated by a "-" sign following the page number or by the entry "cer-". For example, an entry 112- 265r at the right of the page indicates that this marriage is recorded on page 122 of a white book, on page 265 of a red book, and also is entered on a certificate." Marriage is found on page 5 of the Knox County publication. Husband: Hooker, Hanson Wife: Young, Susannah Married: 3 Feb 1820 By Whom: J. W. Pigman min (minister) 50- 114r (Marriage is recorded on page 50 in one of the White Books, page 114 in one of the Red Books; also entered on a certificate.) Marriage is found on page 43 of the Knox County publication. Husband: Young, Cornelius Wife: Dennis, Catharine Married: 16 Jan 1838 By Whom: R. C. Davis JP (Justice of the Peace) 420- 84r (Marriage is recorded on page 420 in one of the White Books, page 84 in one of the Red Books; also entered on a certificate.) My guess from looking at the pages covered, both of these entries would be found in the first White Book, although there is no label that calls it Volume I. Red Book entry for Susannah Young would be in the first red book and the entry for Cornelius would be in the third red book, neither with a volume label. It helps a great deal to be both creative and patient when working in the marriage records. Kudos to Dick DeLauder and Franklin Miller. Carole
