Why This Site Exists
Responsibility for records about people is divided among Georgia's 159 counties and its state agencies. Superior Court clerks record deeds and preserve many trial-court files, Probate Courts handle estates and marriage licenses, and county assessors associate owners with parcels. The Secretary of State manages business, professional-license, and election resources. The Department of Public Health issues vital certificates, while libraries and the Georgia Archives preserve older directories and genealogy material. This site gathers those official routes, explains each custodian's role, and links readers to local sites for covered Georgia communities.
Resources Available Here

- Official custodians: Georgia Vital Records, the Georgia Archives, the Secretary of State, county Superior Court clerks, assessors, and registrars
- Practical search paths: ways to check a court name, trace parcel ownership, and use historical directory collections
- Access boundaries: what Georgia law opens, what remains restricted, and how GORA works when a record is not posted online
Limits of Our Role
This is a privately operated reference site, not part of a Georgia agency, county, municipality, court, or custodian office. Those limits matter:
- We cannot pull, certify, or change any record on your behalf
- We cannot confirm whether a specific person lives in Georgia
- We cannot remove information from government records or third-party databases
- We cannot give legal advice or tell you how a record applies to your situation
- We cannot promise that every index, portal link, or office detail remains current at all times
Only the custodian office can confirm, certify, or correct a record. Nothing found through this site may be used for credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions.
