Hawaii Marriage Records Index

Marriage records in Hawaii are an invaluable resource for genealogical research, reflecting the state's diverse cultural history. Marriage registrations in Hawaii began in 1842 when the Kingdom of Hawaii established the first formal civil registration system. After Hawaii became a U.S. territory in 1898 and later a state in 1959, marriage records continued to be kept by the state. These records, available through the Hawaii Department of Health, include marriage certificates, licenses, and indexes. They offer essential details such as the names, ages, and birthplaces of the couple, which are crucial for genealogists tracing Hawaiian and Pacific Islander ancestry, as well as those researching families with ties to Hawaii’s unique multicultural heritage.
