Overview Of Our Online Service

Jasper County online services is a continuing work in progress. While it is our intention to provide a complete online research resource at a future date, we cannot say that we have presently achieved that level of service. Document recording is more or less complete from April 2007 to the current time. However, from time to time we discover documents which for whatever reason, are not in this system and they are added as they are discovered. Some, but not all documents recorded prior to April 2007 are online. For a variety of technical reasons, blocks of records were illegible and are not included; also, because some of these records are quite old and the ink has faded, they may not in every case, be as legible online as they are on the paper original. We have an online index; however, the laborious job of checking the index against online documents is far from complete and is one of the several projects in which we are continuing to pursue as time is available. Also, this index contains errors which are corrected as they are discovered or brought to our attention. In short, while this online service is certainly adequate for citizens to use as a resource to locate recorded historical instruments, it is not as reliable for title examinations as an examination of the paper records. It is the intention of the Jasper County ROD to eventually provide complete, accurate online documents and indices from 1912 to the current date, as funding is made available.
