The Clerks staff has worked diligently scanning the paper Lien Journals to make them available for the public access.

We hope this will assist title searchers as well to eliminate their travel times.

Below are some informational notes to help assist you with your search.

 

Judgment Liens

  1. You can search Judgment Lien records using our Online Records Search for the years beginning with 1990 – present.  If you find the record you want and the image is not online, get the Journal and Page Number and find it in the Journal below.

  2. If you are looking for a Lien Record Prior to 1990, these will not be available to search on our Online Records Search.  You will have to open each Journal Book (Volume) below and search the defendants name on the index at the beginning of the file.

  3. Beginning with Journal/Volume 18, these cases and images will be located when doing the Online Records Search.

  4. Judgment Lien Journals/Volumes 1 – 3 are located at Guernsey County Genealogy.  The books are too large for the office to scan.
