Below are many JORDAN marriages that I have collected and transcribed.  Some copies were very faint and I will transcribe them to the best of my ability.  Those that are too faint to make out, I will put Unreadable in the place of the words that I can't make out.  At a later time, I will go back to Montgomery County, NC and correct these errors.  If anyone may have the answer to the unreadable sections, please email me with the corrections. If you have records that you would like added to this page please email me at [email protected]
