Can anyone access the land records maintained by the Register of Deeds online?
Yes. All of the records maintained by the Register of Deeds are public records except Military Discharges and can be found in our office. You may go online at www.catawbarod.org and search the real estate (only) index back to January 1, 1993 and images back to December 27, 1979. We are in the process of converting additional years of our microfilmed images to digital images and hope with each year to take this process, along with indexing, further on back. Land records in the office go back to the foundation of the county, 1842. Prior to this you would need to go to Lincoln County.
