  • To obtain a marriage or a divorce record, write to the county recorder of the county where the event took place.
  • Nevada marriage records are open to the public.
  • When consulting the originals one may find licenses in one county office and the certificate series in another location.
  • The Family History Library has microfilmed many of the early county marriage registers.
