This information can then be used to locate the file in the court records or order an abstract from the Office of Data, Research, and Vital Statistics. Divorces taking place in 1930 or later need to be requested directly from the court. A list of Superior Courts and their contact information can be found here. Divorces prior to 1930 can be found in many cases online at FamilySearch by searching for the county in the Card Catalog and then selecting court records in the search results.
