About CountyOffice.org

CountyOffice.org originated in 2014 as a resource to help people find accurate contact information for Clerk's Offices. Initially called County-Clerks.com, it was used by genealogists to locate vital records for genealogy research.

The data was found and confirmed by a team of researchers tasked with locating official contact information and services provided by every clerk’s office in the country. The information was then verified by calling government offices directly. As the site evolved, additional government offices vital to public records research were included such as Assessors, Courts, Recorders of Deeds, Treasurers and Tax Collectors. The name of the site was then changed from County-Clerks.com to CountyOffice.org.

CountyOffice.org continues to monitor visitors search activity and expand resources as needed to include additional offices and access to public records. The site is the largest, most accurate and complete resource of government contact information and public records access.
