• Residence (city, county, and state)
• Birthplace (state or foreign country)
• Date of birth
• Number of this marriage (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.)
• If previously married, how the last marriage ended and the duration of it
• Race

• Social Security number, ID number, or driver's license number

Parents' Information

• Father's full names (first, middle, and last)
• Mother's full names (first, middle, and maiden)
• All birthplaces (state or foreign country)

Other Marriage License Information

• If the applicant is under 18, ID of parent or consenting guardian
• Name and address of person performing the ceremony, if known
