Stratford Town Clerk Records

The Stratford Town Clerk is where most public records in town are kept. You can reach this office at (203) 385-4020.

Like all Connecticut town clerks, the Stratford office maintains land records, vital statistics, trade name certificates, dog licenses, and military discharge papers. Under Section 7-34a of the state statutes, the town clerk must record all deeds, mortgages, and related land documents, then index them by grantor and grantee. That makes it easy to search for any person tied to property in Stratford.
