AL Talladega Marriage Book A - 1834 (Mar 1833 - Sep 1846)

Marriage
Book A is a handwritten copy. There are numerous transcription errors,
even the index sometimes didn't know how to spell the name, or has the
wrong name marked through and corrected. Sometimes the same marriage is
on multiple pages. The verbage in this book is all run together, no
white space, no indentions, and the black writing bleeds through a lot,
so it is difficult to read and to spot where one marriage stops and the
next begins. There is an index for Book A. The pages are hand-numbered.

 

AL Talladega Marriage Book 1834-A and 1834 A-1 (Notes)

"Why do some researchers show the marriage on one page number, another researcher shows a different page number?" is a frequent question about the early Talladega County, Alabama marriages.

Both Marriage Book A and Marriage Book A-1 are copies. They contain basically the same set of marriages. Whether they are copies of a copy, or copies of the original is unknown. There are no original signatures for these books, only the handwriting of the scribe. I'm assuming the original books fell apart and were destroyed.
