York, South Carolina, Newspapers Marriage and Death Notices, 1823-1865.
By Brent H. Holcomb; 1989, Reprint Co., Spartanburg, S.C.

Description: Situated on the North Carolina border, York County, South Carolina,
lies in the important Piedmont area of the state. This database is a collection
of marriage and obituary notices from eight newspapers in the area and contains
over 5000 names of persons found in the notices. Persons from outside York
County can also be found here, such as residents of surrounding counties and
even North Carolina, as many came to Yorkville to be married and avoid the
marriage bond required in their resident state. These notices come from the
following newspapers: the Pioneer (1823-1824), Pioneer and South-Carolina Whig
(1829-1830), Encyclopedia (1825-1826), Journal of the Times (1837), Yorkville
Compiler (1840-1841), Yorkville Miscellany (1851-1854), Remedy (1853), and the
Yorkville Enquirer (1855-1865).
