Phillips - Lee - Monroe Counties in Eastern Arkansas
Marriage Record Book "A" containing records of the earliest marriages recorded in Phillips County is missing from the office of the County Clerk, and the following is from the Index of Marriages, Records, Book I, (except where exact dates are known), which shows only the names of the two parties and the marriage record book and page on which the certificate was recorded. There were 143 marriages recorded in this book.
You will note that many of these names are spelled phonetically. They are listed exactly as they are shown, but a question mark following the name indicates the uncertainty of the translation. Recording began in Phillips County on January 1, 1821 and the next marriage record book begins on February 21, 1832.
Marriage dates preceded by an asterick (*) were extracted from the Arkansas Gazette newspaper files for this time period.
