The Indiana State Library’s web site [http://www.in.gov/library/ Indiana State Library] includes a database [http://208.119.72.68/INMarriages1850/ Indiana State Library Genealogy Database] is an index of 330,000 records of Indiana marriages through 1850.
 
The marriage index was compiled from many sources, including county courthouse records as well as Quaker marriages found in Willard Heiss, ''Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy'': Abstracts of the Records of the Society of Friends in Indiana (see [[Indiana Church Records|Indiana Church Records]]). Since it is an index of records at the Indiana State Library, where not all marriage records are available, the list is not inclusive.
