The Register of Deeds office is the county office where transactions involving real estate are recorded, i.e., deeds, mortgages, mortgage assignments and releases, oil and gas leases and related instruments, affidavits of various types, mineral deeds, sale of oil and gas royalty, powers of attorney, affidavits of equitable interest, plat additions, military discharges, and federal and state tax liens.
The Register of Deeds office became the custodian of the school records from the disbanded office of County Superintendent. We have student records from 1904 through the early 1960s and teacher records from 1887 through the early 1960s.
This office also files statements under the new Revised Article 9 (UCCs) and mechanic liens on personal property.
All records in this office are open to the public with the exception of the Kansas Real Estate Sales Validation Questionnaire, which is a closed record (with a few exceptions) by state statute. Copy charges are $0.50 for all copies. Faxed copies are billed at $1.00 per page. Copies of records from 2000 to present can be emailed at a charge of $1.00 for the first page + $0.25 for each additional page.
