The office of County Recorder was created by the first Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Iowa in 1839.  The basic duty of the County Recorder was to maintain official records of documents affecting title to real estate in order to preserve property rights and protect innocent third parties in real estate transactions.  Since 1839, County Recorders have aquired more responsibilities.  Iowa's County Recorders are proud of their tradition and are looking forward to the future.
