Early Hawaii marriage records are collected at the Hawaii State Archives, the State Department of Heralth, and the Daughters of the American Revolution Library in Honolulu. State Archives records span 1826 to 1910, many of them indexed. Statewide registration of marriages began in 1842. Hawaii divorce records were not recorded by the state until 1950. Divorce proceedings are recorded in circuit court records. For a fee, marriage and divorce certificates can be obtained by mail from the State Department of Health.
