Collection M 028, Series 3.2:
La Plata County (Colo.) marriages, 1876-1889
 records inventory

This is a listing of five thousand La Plata County marriages records that are available for researchers' use in the Delaney Southwest Research Library at the Center of Southwest Studies, Fort Lewis College, Durango, Colorado.  However, as large as it is, yet this cannot be considered a comprehensive list of all marriages in the County (for instance, the Center only has records of two marriages in the year 1919, and none for 1920).

To access this list: the entries in these lists are arranged by date -- of the wedding, if stated; otherwise, by date of the marriage license application.   Because of the quantity of marriage records at the Center of Southwest Studies, the list is divided into separate pages, by groups of years.

Search tip:   search for names using the Edit-> Find in Page (Ctrl+F) feature on your Web browser.

None of these documents circulate; they must be used in the Research Room at the Delaney Library.  To request a copy: To order a two-sided photocopy of a marriage license from this collection, please complete the Photoduplication Request form from http://swcenter.fortlewis.edu/Info_researchers/sw-18.htm and remit payment.  The total charge for the copy and shipping and handling is $5.00.  You may pay using a credit card or by mailing us a check, payable to Fort Lewis College, and we'll mail this copy out to you.
