Marriage bonds, in early Kentucky, were roughly equivalent to the modern-day marriage license. They constituted a legally binding contract of marriage, with at least two parties (usually the groom and a male relative of the bride) agreeing to pay a fine if the wedding did not take place. Marriage returns were sent to the county clerk after the wedding by the person who had performed the ceremony. They were entered into the marriage book at the county courthouse. In the early days, after Bath County was formed from Montgomery County in January 1811, there was no standard form for marriage bonds and parental consent; records preserved and microfilmed at the Kentucky State Archives are the individual slips of paper that families sent to the county clerk. The material in this work is alphabetically arranged; an index to buried names and an appendix of Bath County marriages, performed by Rev. J. P. Howe from 1795 to 1826, will help readers in their research.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul McClure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(1994), 2015, 8.5\" x 11\", paper, index, 222 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN: 9781556139529\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e101-M0952\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heritage Books, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":239005007888,"sku":"101-M0952","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/101-m0952.png?v=1727797121"},{"product_id":"101-e0604","title":"In Search of Morgan's Station and \"The Last Indian Raid in Kentucky\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe focal point of this meticulously researched book is the 1793 Indian raid on Morgan's Station in which a band of about thirty-five Shawnee and Cherokee Indians descended upon this small fort in a surprise attack that ended with two people killed and 19 women and children captured. Additionally, Mr. Enoch describes the years preceding and immediately following the raid; in all, covering more than a quarter century of early Kentucky history.
