The following indexes represent a list of couples whose notice of marriage license issued, or marriage performed or wedding conducted, or news items for anniversaries celebrated, appeared in the weekly Crystal Lake Herald newspaper. Information was not necessarily limited to residents of Crystal Lake and/or Nunda Township. Researchers should look for variant spellings within each index.

Key to abbreviations:

For a time the newspaper started renumbering each of the various sections.
The number after the slash mark in the date column indicates the page number, but if there is an exclamation point after it, that means it is in a different section than the first section, so other sections must be checked for that page.

A = Anniversary - number indicates which one
L = License
M = Marriage - simple notice
News = article
O = Obituary in which marriage date is mentioned
W = Wedding announcement
