Some 19th Century Quaker Marriages

Residents of Wayne County, NY

These marriages come from Quaker Records from Farmington Monthly Meeting, Ontario County, New York, a transcript of the original records made by Josephine C. Frost in the early 1900s. The Library of Congress' copy of this long out-of-copyright resource was digitized and contributed to (and was made available to you, the general public, for free download at) archive.org. The marriages extracted below are only those where it was specifically noted that at least one party to the marriage resided in past or present Wayne County locations. There are many more marriages listed in the full records. Spellings are as in the typescript, and won't be "corrected."
