My second question is whether or not there are marriage records from that time (1793) forward. >> Davidson County was formed in 1783 not 1793. The first marriage was performed here in 1780 but no official record exists of that or other marriages from the first years of the settlement. Marriage records for Davidson Co. date to 1789.
