Tennessee Divorce Records

Do you suspect that a person in your life is lying about his past marriage/divorce? Even if you suspect nothing, there are good reasons why you should check out a person’s background before you tie the knot. You can’t be too careful about new people in yours or a loved one’s life. There are too many people out there telling lies and defrauding people out of money, emotions and anything else they can gain. Tennessee divorce records can be obtained both for governmental purposes and background searches. There are restrictions as to how much information some (unrelated) people may obtain, but you can confirm that a divorce was granted and the names and some other data that you might need. You’ll need to provide the name of one of the people on the divorce decree, date and county where the divorce took place and what your relationship is to the person. You may also need to state why you want the record and include photo identification, address, phone number and email address. Include a search fee of $15 ($5 for each extra copy) in the form of a money order or check with your request and send to:

There may be a three to five week waiting period until you receive the Tennessee divorce record. Also, the search will go no further back than 50 years. If the divorce decree information you need is older than that, you must go through the Tennessee State Library and Archives. Divorces in early Tennessee history had to be approved by the General Assembly (1796-1850). When you do receive the report, it will contain only the information about whether or not the divorce took place and the date it was granted. More information, such as whether children were involved in the divorce, the reason for the divorce, alimony and asset and liability information will not be included because of privacy rights.
