The County maintains all immunities as provided in the South Carolina Tort Claims.

Portions of such information may be incorrect or not current. Any person or entity who relies on any information obtained from this web site does so at his or her own risk. In addition, nothing contained within this web site is an official record of the County or the elected officials responsible therefore. Individuals or entities listed as plaintiffs or defendants may be grantors/grantees, mortgagors/mortgagees, judgment creditor/judgment debtors, lessors/lessees, personal representatives, trustees, etc. All official records of the County and the offices of countywide elected officials are on file in their respective offices and may be reviewed by the public at those offices.


A person preparing or filing a document for recordation or filing in the official records may not include a social security, driver's license, state identification, passport, checking account, savings account, credit card, or debit card number, or personal identification (PIN) code, or passwords in the document, unless expressly required by law. An individual has a right to request a register of deeds or clerk of court to remove, from an image or copy of an official record placed on a publicly available Internet web site or on a publicly available Internet web site used by a register of deeds or clerk of court to display public records, any social security, driver's license, state identification, passport, checking account, savings account, credit card, or debit card number, or personal identification (PIN) code, or passwords contained in an official record. The request must be made in writing and delivered by mail, facsimile, or electronic transmission or in person, to the register of deeds or clerk of court. The request must specify the identification page number that contains the social security, driver's license, state identification, passport, checking account, savings account, credit card, debit card number, or personal identification (PIN) code, or passwords to be redacted. There is no fee for the redaction pursuant to request.


On August 17, 2010 the Public Index search functionality was updated with a change to address the search results when using non-alphanumeric characters in name searches. Previous searches returned an error that may not have been visible when pop-up windows were disabled on your web browser. This could have produced incomplete search results. The updated version of the Public Index now allows the use of non-alphanumeric characters, including an apostrophe, within the name search.
