Land records (especially deeds) often give the name of a spouse, heir, other relatives, or other clues to help research. They often have other clues for further research, such as witnesses or the other parties who may be relatives or in-laws.
 
Land records include: deeds, abstracts and indexes, mortgages, leases, grants and land patents. After land was transferred to private ownership, deeds were usually recorded at the county courthouse. See [[Washington Land and Property|Washington Land and Property]] for additional information.<noinclude>[[Category:Templates_for_WA_pages]]</noinclude>
