Marriages

While looking for my own family at the Galena Courthouse, I was often forced to copy the whole page when trying to get the marriage record I was looking for. Below is a few of those extras! These are only transcriptions.  For the original record, please visit or write the Stone County Courthouse!  If you would like to share your record, please write me to have the record placed on this page. 
*Note: One or two signifigant marriages having a connection to Stone County have been listed that were taken from surrounding counties.
