Shelby County Register Shelandra Y. Ford will open a new county Register of Deeds satellite office Monday (Nov. 16).
The public is invited to attend the opening at 157 Poplar Ave., room 124, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The satellite office will provide all the services of the main office on Mullins Station in a location that may be more convenient for thousands of citizens.
Light refreshments will be served at the grand opening. Everyone is asked to wear a mask and social distancing will be in place. The opening also will be streamed live on the Shelby County Archives Facebook and Instagram pages.
The Register of Deeds is Shelby County’s elected record keeper for tax liens, property titles, mortgages, bankruptcy documents, marriage settlements, contracts, powers of attorney, real estate conveyances, armed forces discharges and various affidavits.
The Register also manages the Shelby County Archives, which preserves the history of the county and provides a valuable resource to members of the community researching the past.
