User Notes:

Records were extracted from Canadian civil lists of marriages; if you do not find your ancestor, it may be because they did not list where they were born in the US. Only those persons listed with names of towns in Jefferson Co., NY for 1)birth 2)residence are listed. If couples were born in Canada but the parents were born in NY, that offspring listing is not included.

Hints

There is an Alexandria in Canada and Alexandria Bay in Jefferson Co NY; if US or Jefferson Co was not listed with the Alexandria, that couple was not included.
Brockville, Canada was formerly called Elizabethtown.
Marriages of residents from the Thousand Islands group have been included even though the islands named may now belong to Canada.
Old records are not an exact science; we have tried to give accurate information as far as possible. Some records appear to have names and places spelled phonetically. When looking for an ancestor, try several alternate spellings.
Not all records in Canada were submitted in the same manner; there may be some listings that give the place of birth first, and residence second or in reverse order. We have tried to clarify that transition as much as possible.

And finally, we hope you find all your “missing” families. This is a treasure trove of information about couples from Jefferson County before 1927.
