=== County Courthouses and City Offices  ===


Many of the key records essential for genealogical research were created by local county or city governments. County records include court, land and property, naturalization and citizenship, probate, taxation, and vital records. The county courthouses are the primary repositories of these valuable records. Some courthouse records have been destroyed. Many have been microflimed and/or transferred to the state archives. The Family History Library has microfilm copies of many of the earlier records of the counties.
