Allier, France, Marriages, 1568-1913

This data collection contains marriage records from the departement of Allier for the years 1568-1913. The records were compiled from original vital records by members of the Association Allier Généalogie in Vichy, France. The original records used to compile this database were most likely civil registration records for marriages occurring between 1792 and 1909 (since civil registration began in 1792), and from church records for entries dating before 1792. Please contact the Association Allier Généalogie for original source information. Be sure to provide them the entire marriage record when inquiring about a source.

Information listed in this database for each spouse (bride and groom) includes:

• Name
• Age or birth date
• Birthplace
• Residence
• Profession
• Signature (whether they signed the record or not)
• Names of father and mother
• Ages, dates of death, or “+” to indicate deceased of father and mother
• Residences of father and mother

• Death or divorce place of former spouse

The notes or comments field consists of additional information about the individual that the compilers of the database thought were important. For example, you may see an “x”, denoting that the person was “married”, followed by the name of that person’s spouse. Likewise, you may also see a “+” which means “deceased”, followed by their death date.
