BOOK - Religious Marriages in Halifax, 1768-1841, From Original Source,
by: Terrence M. Punch, C.G.(C).

The solemnization of marriage in Nova Scotia was contentious during the period of this compilation. Civil and ecclesiastical officials quarreled about who might preside at weddings or keep records of the same, and what was pre-requisite to a wedding ceremony. The legal status of Nova Scotia; whether there was, wholly or partially, a legally established church; and whether that church had a monopoly of marriage, were hotly debated issues.

The origins and habitual attitudes of Nova Scotian residents influenced the situation at times and ultimately. Our consideration of the matter may be divided chronologically into periods opening in the 1750s, 1790s and 1830s.
