The Civil War decimated the male population ages eighteen through thirty in both the North and the South. At the same time, miners and ranchers traveled west, without wives, leading to a shortage of marriageable women. In desperation, both males and females resorted to advertising for husbands and wives. One medium for advertising was a newspaper called The Matrimonial News. It accepted only advertisements for wives and husbands. It was published from roughly 1860-1890.
