Norfolk County Register of Deeds William P. O’Donnell and his outreach team held office hours on February 8th at Medfield Town Hall. The Registry of Deeds is the principal office for real property records in Norfolk County cataloguing and housing more than 6 million land documents dating back to 1793.
O’Donnell and his team met with members of the public and answered questions on a wide range of Registry issues, including the importance of recording mortgage discharges in a timely manner. In addition, Registry staff was also able to provide local residents with certified copies of land documents, such as property deeds.
The Register expressed his strong belief in the benefits of bringing the Registry directly to Medfield. “These county office hours,” noted the Register, “allow us to bring Registry services directly to the citizens of Norfolk Count without the inconvenience of having them travel to the Registry’s central office in Dedham. “
Register O’Donnell concluded by stating, “I want to thank the Medfield Board of Selectmen, Town Administrator Michael Sullivan and the entire staff at town hall for their generosity in allowing us to hold office hours.”
