In "Old Tenth Legion Marriages, marriages in Rockingham County, Virginia From 1778 to 1816 Taken from the marriage bonds" compiled by Harry M. Strickler, p. 17 is a list (probably partial) of ministers who performed marriages in Rockingham Co. Some have their church affiliation denoted. I think we should complete this if it is known now. p. 17 "Early ministers in Rockingham County, Virginia, according to the marriage returns Rev.

Jacob Harnsberger-1815 In a few cases, I know the church affiliation and have indicated it... The above iministers made returns of marriages on dates following their names, the earliest dates observed having been taken for this list. It will be noted that the earliest date is 1792 and do not recall seeing any returns earlier than this. This is the date when the marriage book begins. Does anyone have anything to add to this list?
