New York City Marriage License Index 1908-1972
9,516,669 records
This collection is an index to marriage licenses filed at the New York City Clerk Offices from the five boroughs from 1908 to 1972. The index contains the given names and surnames of both the bride and the groom, the date of the license application, and the license number. Images provided by Reclaim the Records.<br><br>The images are split by borough, bride and groom, and then sorted alphabetically. We have linked the bride and groom together, when possible, using the license number.<br><br>Marriage records are an important genealogical record as they not only record information about the bride, the groom, and their residence when the marriage occurred but often contain additional information such as birth dates, birth places, occupations, and whether single, widowed, or divorced at the time of the marriage. Often a marriage license will also contain information about the parents of the bride and groom including the parents’ names and birthplaces. Copies of the original marriage records in New York City are available for order for a fee from the <a href="http://www.cityclerk.nyc.gov/html/marriage/records.shtml">Office of the City Clerk</a>. Marriages 50 or more years old are classified as public documents and are available to all researchers. Marriages less than 50 years old are restricted and only available under certain circumstances that are outlined at the webpage linked to above.
