The Register of Deeds Office
records any and all documents that pertain to land within the county,
they also file, index and create certified copies of all birth, marriage
and death records that occur within the county.
In June of 2001, the
Register of Deeds office started optical imaging of all documents. This
allows all of the documents from that point on accessible via the
internet. Currently we are working on back scanning historical
documents, making even more available over the net. This advancement
will make it possible for our customers to get the information they need
while at their computers at home. It is our goal to provide efficient
and friendly service to our customers from in and out of Crawford
County.
Crawford County is one of
the oldest counties in the state and it's county seat is Prairie du
Chien, the second oldest city in the state. Prairie du Chien's
beginnings started around Fort Crawford and the American Fur Trade. The
Dousman family, Wisconsin's first millionaires, headed up the fur trade
in this region. The family home "The Villa Louis" is a State Historical
Site located in Prairie du Chien on the banks of the Mississippi River.
