==Information Recorded in the Records== | |||
Divorce records may include: | |||
*Petitions, which started the process, include at least names of parties and the grievance. May include date and place of marriage. | |||
*Certificates or registers contain date marriage was dissolved and names of parties. | |||
*Case files contain the papers created and include marriage and divorce details, residences, and name changes. May include children's names, ages, birth dates. | |||
==Strategy== | |||
*Divorces can be difficult to locate. The divorce may have occurred in another county. Try all the residences of both the husband and wife. | |||
*Many couples simply separated, leaving no divorce record. | |||
