FamilySearch has an ongoing project to index Indiana marriage records. This searchable index, available at [http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=collectionDetails;c=1410397 Record Search] currently is 12 percent complete. It covers 11 of Indiana's 92 Indiana counties (Adams, Blackford, Carroll, Decatur, Franklin, Henry, Huntington, Ohio, Owen, Rush, and Sullivan) The database's title indicates that it indexes records for the years 1811 to 1959, however a few entries date as early as 1790.


Ancestry.com's Indiana offerings include searchable databases titled ''Indiana Marriage Collection, 1800-1941,'' ''Indiana Deaths, 1882-1920'' and ''Indiana Births, 1880-1920.'' These databases were compiled primarily from the published WPA indexes. Ancestry.com is a subscription database, but many public libraries maintain subscriptions that their patrons may use onsite.
