>Does anyone have information on the original marriage licenses for the >period including 1878? Somewhere I believe I read, or heard, that they >had been turned over to a Genealogical Society in Fort Worth. CLOSE.......... It was the Tarrant Co. Historical Commission. For information see: http://www.rootsweb.com/~txtarran/source/research.htm#history JUST a REMINDER - If you haven't looked at the Tarrant Co. Research Page very carefully - you may be missing some good information about what is available in Tarrant Co.....where it is.......who to contact.......etc. If an item is highlighted (a link) - there is more information about it. BTW the link on that page for the Ft Worth Gen. Soc will take you to their site. Happy Hunting, Jean
