MARRIAGES 1824-1826

Franklin County, Indiana was formed from parts of Jefferson, Clark, and Dearborn Counties. In 1818, the formation of Fayette County reduced Franklin County s area. The boundaries were again changed in 1820 making provision for the New Purchase, adding some territory. A part of Franklin County was taken when Union County was formed in 1821. More territory was detached in 1826 and added to Union and Fayette counties.
