Milton Richardson 1819-1901
Hello, this is my second great grandfather. I'm searching for documentation of his marriage on Valentines' Day, about 1841-1844. (Putnam, Indiana.)
I have joined several of the groups since I recently retired as an RN and can now have the time to do genealogy research. I have a public tree on Ancestry and have contributed to the OneTree here at Family Search. I am a new DAR member and can join the Mayflower Society, maybe, in the future.

Hello @Maryann Campbell Castaneda. What sources have you tried already to find this information?

I have searched Family Search Records including the Indiana Wiki; Ancestry record searches; emails & phone calls to historical and genealogical societies in the Terre Haute & Putnam, Indiana areas; Searched various family bible sources (including DAR and Rootsweb), contacted cousins found in family trees to try to locate a family bible held by relatives....... all with no results. Those family trees that have a date all have 14 Feb with year range of 1841-1844.

@Maryann Campbell Castaneda Is this his record: KLY3-HXG?
Have you tried the Indiana Marriages index? Here is a link: https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/1410397
it's possible that it hasn't been indexed yet or there wasn't a formal marriage.
For more info on searching unindexed records, go to here: https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-find-an-image-in-an-unindexed-collection-in-historical-records
With over 1million records being indexed per week, it might just be a waiting game.
I hope something turns up!
