Thurston County Public Records

To ask for County public records, fill out the form you see below. This form helps folks get records, in line with laws of the state and town. You can ask for items like land deeds, wedding papers, shop permits, or notes from board talks. Tax files are also open to those who seek them.

These records are held by both the County and towns inside it. They may be old, or they may be fresh and up to date. Thurston County Public Records are kept by more than one group. Some stay with the Assessor’s team. Others are held by the folks at the Clerk’s or Auditor’s place.

Give the needed facts in the form. Then send it in to make your request. This is one of the best ways to get files that are not shown online. Some of these may not be easy to find, unless you use this path.

If you run into snags while filling out the form, ask for help. You can also reach out if you need help to find a record. Just call or send a note to the County or town that holds the file.
