Since the first of this year when farmers began to file Social Security claims, there has been a tremendous increase in the num ber o fpeople using the Register of Deeds office to obtain certified copies of marriage, birth and death records for use with Social Security claims according to Mrs. Christine W. Williams, Register. There has been a marked in crease in the number of people' coming into the office, writing let ters to the office and making phone-calls. The first 10 months of this year showed a 72.6 per cent increase in the issuance of certified copies of marriage records over the first ten months of last year. A 32.6 per cent increase was noted in the number of certified copies of death certificates, and a 14.7 per cent increase in certified copies of birth certificates issued during the same period. Marriage records in the Register of Deeds office date back to 1749. Birth and death records have been filed since October 1913 but until recently they were regarded as having little value and were seldom used. During the past few years there has been a growing use of birth certificates by children entering school, persons enterin the armed services, and persons' annlirtntr f rr- no-iiin.. .. . 1. 1. - requiring oirtn certificates for em ployment. '28,Vvi Farmers coming under the Social"!, Security program has caused Jfif 7V greatest single use for marriag, birth and death certificates. , Mrs. Williams says that the grow- lng use of these records offers greater opportunities for service of the Register of Deeds Office and at the same time has added consid erably to the office work load. Since so many people -are visit ing the Register's office for vital statistics "it has been necessary that every staff member be train ed to perform aU services render ed by the office in order to serve the public quickly. In addition to the increased use of the vital statistics records, the Duplin Register of Deeds office re corded 3879 real estate instrument and 7601 personal property instru ments during the fiscal year end ed June 30th. These must be copied by typewriter, proof read, Indexed and mailed to owner. Many of these were mortgages which are later brought in or mailed in for cancellation. Recording of instruments during the four months period July, Aug ust, September and October of this year has been the heaviest four! months period in the history of tbe; office. A total of 3350 instrumjsiits.' have been recorded dujjiiljjpas' four months as comparedwJtfr238a for the same period iasf-year. To tal fees collected bs-fflte office dur ing this period amounted to 07,437. 50 as compared to $38769t for the: same period last year, Mrs. WUliams points to three reasons for the big difference: - 1. An unusually large number of right of ways filed during the past four months. 2. Farmers were not securing cer tified copies of vital statistics rec ords during the same period last year, and 3. Many farmers are making cre dit arrangements earlier this year. (334 Deeds of Trusts were filed this Ocotber as compared to 221 last October) Ordinarily December and Janu ary are the heaviest months in re cording and Mrs. WiUiams says we wonder if this will be true this year in view of the months Just -passed.' In addition to the recording and ' indexing of birth, death and mar riage records and the recording anoT indexing of property instruments. the Register of Deeds office also records County Commissioner min utes, and service men's discharge records and issues marriage licenses. The present staff of the Dunlin Register of Deeds Office is com posed of Mrs. Christine W. Wil liams, Register, who is finishing her 5th year this month; Mrs. Lucy B. Baker, Deputy, who has been a member of the staff 7 1-2 years; Mrs. Elsie Smith PoUock, Deputy, who has been with the office & years this month. Miss Janice Smith Deputy has 4 years service with then ? office, Miss Jacqtrie Boyette and! ; Mrs. Doris Sitterson, Deputise loin- 1 ed the staff this year.
