California Marriage And Divorce Records

By Ben Kingsley


Marriage records are maintained because they serve as proof that a marriage is valid. The records can also be used to trace the family roots of a person. They also reveal the original family name of the wife. Certified Florida Marriage Records are kept at the specific county of Clerk that granted the marriage. The California Health Department also has copies of the records, but can only provide marriage certificates.

A person may request for public documents, including marriage documents. However, if a person wants to request the documents of another person, he or she will need the permission of the couple. Even with the permission of the couple, that person will only be given a marriage certificate because certified copies are only given to the couple, their lawyers, and other parties that are specified by the court. Certified copies contain the complete details of a marriage document. Certified copies can be used in a legal proceeding, while marriage certificates only serves as basis for information.

A marriage certificate contains the basic pieces of information regarding a particular marriage such as the name of the husband and the wife, their birth date, birth place, the place where the marriage occurred, and the likes. It is the right of the husband and the wife to keep private the other details of their marriage.

Public offices that store public documents run their own official websites. The documents are encoded and inserted into a database. Despite running their own websites, public offices still take awhile to process transactions because they are short in employees. Thankfully, the court permits some online search tools to also make the documents available to the public upon request. The documents that you get from the official websites of public offices are identical to what you will get from online search tools.

Online search tools are categorized into two: free online search tools and paid online search tools. Free online search tools provide the basic details of a marriage document. Paid online search tools will also provide the basic details of marriage, plus a lot more as long as they are legally available. You can perform as many searches as you want if you register yourself as a member of a paid online search tool. There is only a one-time payment to become a member. If you are not interested in becoming a member, you are obliged to pay for each document that you search for.

A Marriage License is very important should be found in a marriage document. Without it, the document will be deemed as incomplete and the marriage will not be recognized as official. A license can be acquired at a county Clerk of Court. There are certain requirements and they all should be submitted. One example of a requirement that should be submitted is a divorce record, but that is only necessary if either of the couple has previously been married. A marriage license is valid for 90 days. The couple should be married within the duration of 90 days or they will have to acquire another license.
