Grant County
Why isn't Grant County included?

Answer
A quote from the article reads "Currently this collection is 82% complete."

This collection isn't finished publishing, I don't know if Grant County will be included in the final collection. I will ask the Collection Operations Unit if they know why Grant County isn't included in the collection. When I get an answer I'll post it here.

serious problem with some pages in Indiana marriages--mismatched pages show wrong marriage relationships
there is a VERY serious problem with a few pages in this _Indiana Marriage Records_ records set: For some reason pages in Parke County marriages that don't belong together are filmed together, so that it appears that grooms (information on left page) and brides (information on right page) are a pair when they're not because the correct pages aren't aligned together. Fortunately, pages are numbered so if one is careful you can avoid the error, but unfortunately the indexers weren't so careful and dutifully matched people together who were not married to each other. For a specific example, p96 and p93 are shown as a pair, with the dozen or so couples on the two pages (and on their corresponding pages 97 and 92) appearing to be married to the wrong people!

Adding to the misfortune is that this issue is duly noted in the 'known issues' for this collection, but the note is so far removed from the data, and even from the description of the collection, that I expect it's known only to the person who wrote it and perhaps a few people who've discovered and tried to report the problem (we're told that since it's documented as a known issue nothing more needs to be done. sigh.)
