Augusta County (Va.) Marriage Register, 1813-1846

Augusta County (Va.) Marriage Register, 1813-1846, is a list of marriages celebrated in the county and certified by the county clerk. The register consists of the names of both parties, by whom married, the authority (license or publication) and the date when married. There are references, found on pages 18-a (1824) and 66 (1846), to marriages between "free persons of color." Due to the photostatic process, marriages between 1828-1833 are difficult to read.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
