Clerk of Orphans' Court

The Clerk of the Orphans’ Court administers over proceedings relative to adoptions, estates of incapacitated persons and marriage licenses. It also oversees the care and preservation of the old birth and death records dating from 1893 to 1905. Copies of birth and death records can be obtained in person or through the mail. The cost is $2.00 for a regular copy or $5.00 for a certified copy. We need to know the name of the person, approximate date or year of the birth or death, location of the birth or death and the parents’ names, if possible.
