FindMyPast releases second tranche of US marriages

FindMyPast.com has released a second tranche of United States marriage records.

Like the first instalment, this second batch holds 10million records, a significant proportion of them coming from Indiana, New York, Illinois, Maine and Pennsylvania. One million of them are making their online debut.

The records include marriage date, bride and groom names, birthplace, birth date, age, and residence as well as father’s and mother’s names. As a result, this release adds about 30million names to the collection.

This release marks the second stage of an ambitious project that will see Findmypast, in partnership with FamilySearch International, digitize and publish at least 100 million records from more than 2,800 counties across America. The collection will span 1650–2010 and is expected to be completed by the end of 2017.

The records are available to search with a 'US & Canada' or World subscription package. The 'US & Canada' package is offered only by FindMyPast.com; The World package is offered by all four FindMyPast territories. You can find out more by clicking on your 'local' territory flag below.
