We have no immediate plans to digitize the pre-1860 Frederick Co. chancery. The Circuit Court Records Preservation Program is focusing its efforts on localities whose records have not undergone preservation reformatting. The pre-1860 Frederick chancery has been reformatted to microfilm, and they will not be scanned until digitization is complete for other unreformatted chancery collections. The Frederick Co. microfilm is available through interlibrary loan.

Hey Bari do you know when the pre-1860 Frederick Co. chancery files will be available online?



Thanks very much.
