New Orleans Justices of the Peace Records

From 1846 to 1870, the Justices of the Peace were the exclusive source for civil marriage licenses in Orleans Parish, which was divided into 6 districts, each of which was to elect a justice . . . A card index to the records, arranged by name of bride and groom, is located in the Louisiana Division . . . The New Orleans Volunteers Association (NOVA) has begun a long term project to database the index to the records.
