    This database is an index to the marriage records of Audrain County, Missouri, from 1 January 1870 to 6 February 1917. Each entry includes the bride's name, groom's name, marriage date, and a reference (including volume and page number) as to where the original record is located among the Audrain County Marriage volumes maintained by the Audrain County Clerks at the county courthouse.
