Is a Notarial Record the same as a Notarys journal entry?
No. In most basic terms, the Notary’s journal is the Notary’s record of a notarial act performed that is kept by the Notary while a Notarial Record is completed by the Notary and filed with either the Notary’s employer, if the employer is a title insurance company or agent, financial institution or attorney at law, or the Cook County Recorder of Deeds.
