The number of marriage licenses the Plymouth County Recorder’s office issues varies. Last year there were about 150 marriage licenses.
Recorder Jolynn Goodchild says the couple will need someone who knows them to come to the Recorder’s office with them to apply for the license. They’ll need some identification.
