Searching Public Documents

Logo for Fremont County Recording DivisionThe Recording Division offers an invaluable resource for those seeking to explore, research, and obtain copies of a wide array of public records, including real estate documents, deeds, military records, and more, dating back to 1860.

Designed with user-friendliness in mind, our public search portal allows you to seamlessly search records at no cost and purchase copies online for your convenience. Whether you're tracing property ownership, verifying legal documents, or conducting historical research, our division is committed to providing transparent access to public records.


Colorado Revised Statute 30-10-101 (2.5)(c) does not allow the Clerk’s Office to conduct real estate record searches. For copy requests, please use our public search portal to purchase documents.

Documents are available from 1860 to the present. There is no charge to search public records online or in the office. Images are not available online until the document is purchased. For subdivisions, deposited surveys, or maps, click on the rectangle that says “maps, plats, or surveys.” For all other records, click the rectangle that says “All Records Search.”

The image fee for copies is a $2.00 flat rate, plus $1.00 convenience fee, per document. When checking out, make sure to input the number of copies under the desired copy - either copies or certified copies.

Certified copies are NOT electronically transmitted. Before mailing the document, our office will need verbal confirmation and verification of the mailing address.


The following list is a guide to the more commonly searched documents.

Deeds Documents that convey real estate.
Deeds of Trust Documents that encumber real estate (possibly a loan). In the State of Colorado, the Public Trustee, a third party, is appointed as regulatory official.
DD214 Documents which state an individual's military record.
Subdivisions Approved maps showing the legal boundaries of lots, blocks and easements at the time of recording.
Liens Documents that encumber real estate by businesses or individuals attempting to collect on money due because of services rendered.
Other Judgments and decrees, federal and state tax liens, releases, public trustee documents, business incorporation and Statements of Authority, and marriage licenses, for example.

For copy requests, please use our public search portal and purchase the documents through there. Documents can be recorded in the Clerk and Recorder’s Office by mail, submission through an e-recording vendor, or over the counter. Documents are recorded in time order, as received, to the best of our abilities.

Over the years, experts have suggested that veterans file a copy of their DD214 at their County Clerk’s Office to make it easily accessible, should the need arise. Military discharge papers are highly confidential.

The National Archives and Records Administration has outlined certain requirements for dissemination of military records, such as the DD214 form, which this office has elected to adopt.

A DD214 request form must be filled out to request a copy from this office.

All requests for copies of a DD214 must now be accompanied by a written request form and a picture I.D. Copies will only be distributed to the veteran listed or to his or her next of kin.

Lawyers, doctors, historians, etc. may request copies of a DD214 with signed authorization from the veteran or next of kin.
