Where Can I Find Marriage Records?

The availability of Texas marriage records is now made easier by the Goliad County Texas Clerk of Court’s website. In fact, you can obtain access to this information in just a few minutes from your computer. All you need to do is register with your name and email address on the website, and you will have full access to the vital records database.

In addition to having this important record available, the website also offers an online search feature. This way, you can find out the person’s location, marriage history and other pertinent information. As you can imagine, you can then use this information to locate the marriage license in your state. Once you have obtained these records, it’s then very easy to obtain copies for yourself. These copies are also legal documents that are required to be filed with the proper county clerk’s office after your separation or divorce. Typically, this takes around thirty days.

Now that you know where and how to find these records, the question is, “What are the requirements to access public Texas marriage records?” Each state has different rules and regulations regarding marriage records and other vital records. While Texas marriage records can be requested from the Texas county clerk, they generally require an application fee. Typically, you will be able to obtain the records at no cost.

Typically, you will be able to find the following information from the Texas county records offices: names of the couple, date of wedding, location of ceremony, full names of the bride and groom, names of parents of both individuals, witnesses (both male and female), license number and the official seal of the county. If you would like more information about the individual, you can also request it from the Texas Vital Statistics Office. You can get additional information such as birth information, immigration records, death information, cemetery details, probate records, etc. The fee for obtaining records from the Texas Vital Statistics Office is $15. They can be obtained online, via fax or by mail. If you want the records delivered to your home, you may choose the traditional mail option.

Marriage records in Texas are considered public records. Therefore, anyone who intends to locate information on these records should be able to find them.
