BC Marriages: by Mark Welchley

Early marriages in all of Western PA are difficult to obtain. Except for a brief period in the early 1850s, county records were not kept until 1885. Many church and magistrate records have been lost or destroyed. Newspapers, then, may preserve the only surviving records. This book includes abstracts of over 2,000 Beaver County, Pennsylvania marriages giving the name of the bride and the groom, the minister, the date of the marriage and the newspaper insertion date, parents when given, and location of marriage by abbreviation. Index.
