==Records==
Marriages conducted by Registrar commenced in 1852 and are included in the India Office ‘N’ series under reference IOR/N/11- 'Returns of Registrar Marriages in Bengal, Madras, Bombay and Burma' Copies of these registers are held in the [[British Library]]. ( Digitised copies of the records are also available in the British India collection on the commercial website [http://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2114&awinaffid=201071&clickref=&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.findmypast.co.uk%2Farticles%2Fworld-records%2Fsearch-all-uk-records%2Fspecial-collections%2Fbritish-india-office-collection FindMyPast]). Note FamilySearch has '''not''' filmed these records, so they are not included in the FamilySearch database of Indexed records, nor available as digitised microfilms.
It will be noted that after 1910 when all parties to marriage were shown in the usual 'N' indexes in Alphabetical order, the maintenance of the Registrars' Marriages Index was deemed unnecessary and all marriages thereafter appeared within the usual indexes.
