re: marriage between "H. F. Atkison & Crinna Hampton" that took place on Dec 27, 1899 in Henderson County You should be able to obtain copy of marriage license of above from the Tennessee State Library and Archives in Nashville, TN. There is a form to download and complete on the website of the Tennessee State Library. WHAT YOU NEED IS THE LICENSE #, BOOK #, PAGE #. Go here for information on ordering by mail or if you live in state of Tennessee, you could go directly to Archives in Nashville and find it yourself on microfilm. There is a fee to order by mail. <A HREF="http://www.tennessee.gov/tsla/history/mailcnty.htm#Marriages">History & Genealogy - Services Available by Mail - County Records</A> or http://www.tennessee.gov/tsla/history/mailcnty.htm#Marriages I found the below marriage #, book #, page # of the above marriage on website of Henderson Co. TN, loose unbound records-Henderson Co. TN: Atkison H.F. 154 Hampton Crinna 21-Dec 1899 21-Dec 1899 4 132 so it is marriage license #154 in book 4 on page 132 A microfilm of BOOK 4 can be also be ordered from Mormon FHL, Salt Lake City, UT through any local Mormon Family History Library. You can look up license yourself. For Book 4, the # of microfilm is: #2138636 Item 3 Fee to order microfilm from Mormon FHL, Salt Lake City, is around $3.50. Any volunteer at any Mormon Library should be able to help you order the microfilm with above microfilm #. There is also another microfilm # for marriages of County Clerk Henderson Co. Tn listed on LDS website: Marriage record, v. 2-4 1893-1901 Microfilm # 978744 I believe it is the first one in above that would have what you seek. It is my understanding that the Henderson Co. TN Courthouse no longer has actual marriage licenses from the time period you seek, all have been microfilmed. Microfilm of marriages should also be available at the Everett Horn Library, Lexington, TN, in addition to microfilms at Tennessee State Library & Archives should you wish to go in person. There is no staff at the Everett Horn library to handle requests for copies by telephone, mail, or any other way a request would be made. What the volunteer at the LDS library you went to should have shown you how to do is to search the Mormon Family History Library catalog, doing a place search for Henderson part of Tennessee, there you would have found what records are available on microfilm for Henderson Co. TN and you would have found MARRIAGE RECORDS available on microfilms. In other words, once you have information on License #, BOOK #, PAGE # you can order by mail and/or with Microfilm # go in person to Tennessee State Library, Nashville, TN; or order microfilm from Mormon Library, Salt Lake City. Hope this helps.
