This is a list of marriages of Washington County, Florida arranged in alphabetical order by surname of brides. The records were extracted from microfilm and many of the book and/or page number locations were illegible. Where it was possible to estimate the most likely location based on marriage date, it has been added with [brackets] to indicate that it is an estimation. It is unlikely that the estimated page is exactly correct, but most should be within a few pages of the estimate.
Some of the record locations are not consistent with the marriage date. These have been indicated with an asterisk* following the book and/or page which seems inconsistent. In most cases, this only indicates an unusually long delay before the married couple returned the proof of marriage to the recorder. In a few cases, it could mean an error in the date or location of the record. A careful researcher will always check the original record.
Some names were illegible. If you do not find the marriage you are looking for, be sure and check this list at the end of last file.

The largest changes occurred in 1913 when Bay County was created and the coastal peninsula forming Choctawhatchee Bay was transferred to Walton County, reducing Washington County to 42% of its former size.
