Sussex County - Clerk's Office, Courts and Miscellaneous
Sussex County was formed from the western
portion of original Morris County on 8 June 1753. Consult the Morris County page linked below for pre-1753 records. The southern
portion of old Sussex County was set off as Warren County in 1824.
County clerks were required by law to file
copies of deeds beginning in 1785 and mortgages beginning in 1766. Consult the Secretary of State page linked below for colonial
deed filings.
