I have found the date the law was outlawed I just can't find the date it was made a law. The Supreme Court outlawed this law in 1967 but I have searched for the date it was made into a law and cannot find it. Any history buffs out there that can help me?

Every state declared interracial relationships unlawful at different times. Your best bet is to check the southern states - South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, etc.

Don't know exactly, but you probably want to look up state laws, especially down south.
