Re: James Willie Manning and his 2 wives Sarah Jones and Lucy Gray

I’m not related to any member of this family.

ALA Vital Records -
VITAL RECORDS include birth, death, marriage and divorce records. Alabama law did not require the recording of birth or death certificates until 1908. The statewide recording of marriage certificates began in 1936 and divorce certificates in 1950. The Alabama Department of Archives and History has indexes to those records, but original certificates must be obtained from the Alabama Center for Health Statistics.
