Index to Maine Marriages 1892-1966, 1977-1996

This index and the Index to Maine Deaths, 1960-1996 (available as a separate database), were created by the Maine State Archives. The Archives' website stresses that "the index may not reflect the official information on the actual records and that the databases are available on an 'as-is' basis. One may verify the official information by requesting a copy of the record in question."

To order a copy of a specific marriage record for the years 1892 to 1922, send an e-mail request to the Archives. The basic fee for searching and copying marriage records is $6 for a non-certified copy and $10 for a certified copy.

For marriage records for 1923 and later, contact Maine Department of Human Services, Office of Data Research and Vital Statistics at 207-287-3181 or U.S. mail at 11 State House Station, Augusta, ME 04333.

NEHGS also has Maine vital records from 1892 to 1955, as well as some pre-1892 records on microfilm. NEHGS research and photocopying services are available.
