MADISON COUNTY

DIVORCES/SEPARATIONS

Although often an unpleasant event, divorces and separations were a fact of life for the earlier generations as they are today. Information regarding these events was, perhaps, a little less available than it is today but occasional items appeared in the Madison county newspapers from which this data was derived.
