One of the records types found at FamilySearch.org that is growing rapidly are digital images and indexes for marriages found in county and state records of the United States. Since I have a lot of New York ancestry, I was pleased to see that additions have been made to the New York Marriage Records, 1908-1935 database this last week.
The New York Marriages 1908-1935 database currently covers the counties of Broome, Cattaraugus, Chemung, Delaware, Fulton, Jefferson, Monroe, Niagara, Oneida, Ontario, Orange, Oswego, Putnam, St. Lawrence, Tioga, and Warren. There are 22,264 images currently available on the site, with 157,260 records currently both digitized and indexed. Marriage records will often have several records and names per image, thus the spread between images and records. Please note that the collection does not include New York City, nor its boroughs.
I did a search for the name Meitzler, and came up with 2 exact hits. These were for my cousin Charles Roy Meitzler, and his father, Charles H. Meitzler. Both of these records came from the same document, which was the marriage record of Charles Roy Meitzler to Phyllis Hecht.
