Tennessee marriage index of Walker County, Georgia
Many Tennesseans went to this north Georgia county across the Tennessee State line from Chattanooga to get married as the Georgia state requirements to be married differed from Tennessee, specifically the age limit was lower and no blood test/waiting period was required. Walker County was also adjacent to Fort Oglethorpe so Tennessee men enlisting and training for military duty in World War II found Walker County a convenient place to be married.
