Will someone tell me what resources are available to find a marriage record in Amherst County? According to the DAR records for Lewis Nicholas son of Rev. War Patriot, Robert Carter Nicholas: Lewis Nicholas Sep 1766, Williamsburg, VA, d. 17 Jan 1840, Albemarle Co., VA, m. 10 Apr 1793, Amherst Co., VA, Francis Harris b. c. 1775, VA, d. 21 Dec 1828, Albemarle Co., VA. I have written to the Amherst County Court House and included a check and a self-addressed stamped envelop, but have received no reply. Any assistance will be appreciated. Lonny J. Watro
