Alachua County Florida Clerk of Court Website

If you are reasearching Florida ancestors from Baker, Bradford, Charlotte, Clay, Citrus, Columbia, Desota, Duval, Gilchrist, Hardee, Hernando, Highlands, Hillsborough, Levy, Manatee, Marion, Pasco, Polk, Putnam, Sarasota, Suwannee, or Union counties, you may want to check out the wonderful Alachua County Clerk of Court website at

http://www.clerk-alachua-fl.org/Archive/default.cfm

Since the above counties were all once part of Alachua county in 1830, the "ancient" records on the Alachua County Clerk of Court website may cover these present-day counties. You can check out the census map on the site to see when the above counties were part of Alachua County. It wasn't until 1925 that Alachua County took on its present shape.

Some of the records found at this Alachua County Clerk of Court website are:
  • Marriage Records from 1837 through May 1973;
  • Partial Deed Index;
  • Partial Mortgage Index;
  • Virtual Museum;
  • Books with Online Images;
  • Record of Physicians Certificates;
  • Marriage License Records;
  • Will books;
  • Plats Recorded before 1940;
  • 1850 Census;
  • 1860 Census
  • Partial 1870 Census.
