I suggest that you contact Clay County with Deed questions. https://www.claync.us/

Best of luck in your search.

Dear Ms. Johnson,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

The Federal Government does not ordinarily create or maintain birth, death, marriage or divorce records. Such records are made and kept by State and local governments rather than the National Archives. We suggest that you search the North Carolina Marriages, 1759-1979 FamilySearch index and/or request a record search from the North Carolina State Archives.  Also, please review the FamilySearch Research wiki for North Carolina Vital Records

In addition, we suggest that you contact the Clay County Register of Deeds for land record information.

We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!

Hi Linda,

Found your family tree on familysearch.org. It is a free website you just need to register to search.

Garland Garfield Melton (1902–1974), Lillian Lee Mosteller (1914–1987) | Landscape View | Family Tree | FamilySearch

There is a lot of family information in the tree but I did not see a marriage license for Garland and Lillie.
