THE DUTIES OF OUR OFFICE INCLUDE:

To record all deeds, mortgages, land contract, easements, corporation records, lis pendens, certified survey maps and instruments authorized by law to be recorded.  Prices of recordings are $30.00 per document. 

Our land records start in 1854.  You may request copies of land records for $2.00 first page and $1.00 each additional page by coming into our office or online by clicking the Tapestry link below.

Statewide Vital Record Certificate Issuance

 Our vital records start at 1876.  We have some early marriage records starting at 1854. 

These vital records are on file in Jackson County for birth, death, marriage, divorce, and military discharge.  If the person on record was either born or died in one county and resident of Jackson County (or vice versa), the record should be filed in both counties.

As of January 2017, if you were born or married in Wisconsin you can go to any County seat to get your birth or marriage certificate. 

As of September 2013, to the present, you can get death certificates anywhere in the state but prior to that you will have to go to the County Seat of Death or Resident County at the time of Death.  

As of January 2016, to the present, you can obtain divorce certificates statewide on or before January 2016, you can only obtain them from the Clerk of Court in the county the divorce was filed in.

You can fill out an application for the type of certificate you would like to get and bring it into our office so we can issue you the certificate. Or you can click on the Official Records Online link on the right of this page, and we will mail it to you.

Outside of our office, Jackson County has a history room located in the public library with additional county information.  If you are interested in genealogy, you may click on history room for more literature.  For information on the Jackson County History Room click here.
