I was all braced to make a two hour trek and fill out teams of red tape for the documents I needed. The vital records department is fortunate enough to have Stephanie Perez in their office and she was a joy and blessing . Her help was given with a happy and friendly effort I felt more as if I were doing something for her instead of the actual case. Wow! So rare in the business world to find such a pleasant person whose expertise has not gone to her head. Made my day!

Yesterday my little wife and I went down to Reg Of Deeds office to get our updated wills notarized and witnessed. We could not have been more pleased with the professionalism and kind reception we experienced in your office. A special thanks again to all involved, especially Mrs Carol who notarized our documents. She had all the answers to our questions and made the whole process painless. Thanks Ladies!!!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

to transfer property to a living trust using a general warranty deed form can i fill this out or does an attorney have to do it?

The Register of Deeds only records documents and is unable to answer questions that can be considered legal. We always recommend that you go through an attorney for important matters such as these. But whether or not you can or should do it instead, I couldn't say.

If you're asking for the birth certificates for the twin grandsons and they were adopted by their stepdad you're going to have to go through the Raleigh office to get it. All adoption records are sealed and no longer available at county level you can call the office for the number to reach the adoptions department

How do I download birth records

DemonBabyFetus | Aug 24, 2018
Shannon Zickefoose | Aug 24, 2019

You cannot download birth records. The main website has a public search feature where you can search vital records but you will only see the indexing info. You could access them from the public search vault in either office.
