Changes at the Registry
In an effort to reduce space, lower rent and save jobs here at the Essex North Registry of Deeds, it became necessary to remove all recorded land books and plans from our office.
However, all books and plans have been copied and scanned and are readily available for viewing here at the Lawrence registry or at lawrencedeeds.com. |
