QUAKER MARRIAGE RECORDS
1813—1835
Submitted by Linda Lockhart
Many Quakers from North Carolina were Orange County Pioneers. In 1809 Jonathan Lindley visited Indiana Territory with a land—seeking party, and purchased land in what is now Vigo Co. In 1811, under his leadership, a party of thirty or more left North Carolina, and arrived in Indiana Territory, where they stopped at the stockade at Half Moon Spring, near Lick Creek, in what is now Orange Co. It seemed inadvisable, due to unsettled conditions, to push on to the Wabash Country, as had been planned, so they remained at the Lick Creek settlement.
In 1813, Lick Creek Monthly Meeting of Friends was set up by West Branch Quarterly Meeting of Ohio. It grew rapidly. Members were admitted to the meeting from meetings in North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and Ohio. The minutes have been carefully kept, and the early ones have been typed and bound. Fifty—Seven marriages took place from 1813 through the above marriage records, the end of 1835. Some were married at Newberry Meeting, and a few in other meetings. None of these marriages are recorded with the county marriage records. A complete copy of these marriage records has been contributed by Mrs. Myrtle Marts Mavity to the D.A.R. Library.
