There was no waiting period in Maryland and if the couple was "too young" who was to know there. A lot of times it was easier to travel there then to say their own county seat too - was closer.

I'm hoping there is a SHIPS researcher on this list who can help me solve my Mary GOINGS dilemma. Before locating in Hardy County in 1790s, a family of GOINGS probably lived in Shenandoah Co, and were descendants of a Michael Goan (Goings) and wife Molly. This Michael seemed to disappear from tax lists etc. in Shenandoah in about 1790s. The sons (and possibly other family members) settled in Hardy Co. at that time. This group includes a Henry, Michael, Shadrack Jonas, Joseph, Jacob and others. My theory is that this Mary GOINGS who married SHIPS was the widow of old Michael of Shenandoah. I have looked at lots of microfilm and have visited Hardy Co Court House in my research. Would be happy to share in my GOINGS information. In a County Record Book 1818, there are other confusing entries concerning Shadrack GOINGS and Rachael WATTS - and also Henry and wife Lucy BLACKWELL GOINGS. I had posted to this list about this bunch a couple of years ago - just thought I'd try again for new members. Annette Miner

Has anyone looked at this site? http://www.rootsweb.com/~wvhardy/harmar.htm My ancestors I found at the court house , married Feb 1815 Also the Lib of VA has online many records and Hardy was part of Virginia for a long time. They have the Northern Neck Land grants on digital and can be downloaded. Barbara --------------------------------- Get your own web address for just $1.99/1st yr. We'll help. Yahoo! Small Business.

Jeff, This is Robin and I am not able to read any of your postings to the Hardy Co web site. It comes only with the message that you can unsubscribed. I have never had that to happen before.

I found out that a lot of people that lived in Moorefield and the surrounding small towns actually went to Cumberland, Maryland to get married because they didn't need to get a blood test.
