The Laurens County Library would likely have a book of marriage of the mid 1800s. However, all will not be included. Right now, I do not remember when everyone had to apply for a license at the Court Houses. If someone was married in church, the marriage was recorded there. So many early church records have been lost. I live in Greenwood, SC which is 28 miles from Laurens. We have a lot of books on Laurens and I will check in the books of marriage records section for Laurens County marriages. It may be later this week before I can get there.
