The volume contains two alphabetical listings. The first is for the grooms and the second is the brides. Each of the entries gives the date the license was issued and the names of the parties involved. Starting with the 1838 date, these represent the oldest and beginning marriage records for the County since Fort Bend County was created that year from Austin, Harris and Brazoria Counties.

For example an entry is as follows:

Cheney, Ebenezer to Neale, Mrs. Mary 12/04/1845 - [indicating she was married prior to this time]
Hodge, Mary to Peveyhouse, Abraham 11/26/1840
