Newark Municipal Court Marriage Records
Marriage records verify the legal union of two individuals. In Ohio, municipal courts do not issue marriage licenses or maintain records; this responsibility lies solely with the probate court. This means that if searching for a record of marriage whose license was issued in Licking County, the Licking County Probate Court should be contacted. Marriage records are open to the public in Licking County.
The Licking County Probate Court maintains records for marriages from 1991 onward. To obtain certified copies, requesters should be prepared to provide the exact names of both parties before marriage and the date of the ceremony. The court's "Obtaining a Certified Copy of a Marriage Record" page includes a form for requesting copies by mail. Each copy costs $2.
