Claiborne County was erected in 1801 from parts of Grainger and Hawkins counties, and Campbell County from parts of Anderson and Claiborne five years later. This book comprises the earliest surviving marriage records of both of these strategically-placed counties. The records date from 1838, when marriage registers came into official use in the state. Altogether some 2,000 marriages are listed here, each giving the names of the bride and groom, the date of issue of the license, and the date of the marriage.
