Re: Marriage Record: (from jrowens@ecicnet.org (John R. Owens)
Sherry, this might be difficult to find as the county was formed in 1738. The earliest marriage bonds for Frederick county date only to 1773, any marriages listed in my records before 1773 were extracted from published records and used. Frederick county marriage book number 1 is dated from 1782.
If I can be of further help just let me know.
