>>if they did not want to get married in
Monroe county, where do you think they would have gone. Where is the nearest place?<<
Maggie,
There are 4 or maybe 5 counties that border
Monroe Co. There were river boats that went down to Mobile and up river to most major towns. Any minister could perform weddings. After about 1870 - 75 there were railroads that served cities large and small. People traveled many different ways depending on circumstance.
