General query about Shenandoah County marriage customs
Posted by: RT Nixon (ID *****2920) Date: May 22, 2009 at 15:55:16

Would appreciate someone familiar with marriage customs in Shenandoah County, VA to offer an explanation or reference to the following:

1. What is marriage by affidavit? Who typically submits the affidavit? Does this type of marriage occur before or after cohabitation?

2. What does it mean to post a bond for marriage? Who typically posts the bond? What is the bond's purpose?

Thank you in advance for any help you are willing to offer. Dick
