The marriage records abstracted here derive from microfilm copies of the original bonds and from a microfilm copy of a register of marriage bonds maintained from 1851 by the clerk of the county court. The arrangement is alphabetical by the surname of the groom, and each entry has the name of the bride, the date of the marriage bond and, where recorded, the names of the minister, witnesses, and bondsmen. About 9,000 marriage bonds are abstracted.
This work contains abstracts of all marriage bonds issued in Wilkes County shortly after it was erected from Surry County, to 1868.

As is the convention, the data are arranged throughout in alphabetical order by the surname of the groom, and each entry contains the name of the bride, the date of the bond, and the name of the bondsman.
