"The first recorded marriages in the Carolina area came in 1741 with the passage of a[n] act similar to that of Virginia requiring a bond to ensure the validity of the proposed marriage. The act remained in its basic unchanged form until it was modified in 1868 with the current state license process. These bonds form the core of the records abstracted here. The materials were first copied by youths during the depression under the National Youth Administration Project, a make-work assistance program created in the depths of the Great Depression... Later during the 30s the Historical Records Project, a creation of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) , organized the youth's transcriptions and the final copies were made under the supervision of the Genealogical Society of Utah. The original surviving marriage bonds are housed in the archives of the North Carolina Historical Commission in Raleigh, NC... The current work has been abstracted directly from these WPA 'originals'. In all, 5,516 marriages are included in the present work"--page iii.
