How are rules and regulations set for the Register of Deeds office in North Carolina? Are there State Statutes that regulate the preservation of documents? With constant hacking and now AI coming on, how could anyone expect to completely trust that electronic documents could not be changed? It is good that public records may be retrieved without going to the Court House, but they should be backed up by hard copies that bear signatures.

Countrygirl411: I will write what I know soon, but suffice it to say, the key is recording a hardcopy (not the original), indexed by hardcopy at the County Registry. That is what is paramount as per state general statues (without research I can not be specific which statute).

I guess we all need to get at least one certified copy of the deed to our property if everything is going to be hackable with no hard copy back up.

Prendie Girl. You are so quick to throw the liar grenade. It has worked for you a lot in the past. It does not work on people who have even half a brain. If you are so smart, prove that I am lying. One of us is a LIAR.

Exactly Sherry Sawyer: I will address that issue of safekeeping in a more developed post later. Safekeeping documents is incredibly important and has been a staple of what Beaufort County is charged to do for over three centuries, and that is a very long time.

I agree that hard copy should be kept even though records are becoming more digital for convenience and space. For instance military records DD214 for example my father served into the military and served two years, now that he is deceased I've been trying to locate his records and they are not to be found. Human Error on input happens every single day, being able to reference back to hard copies helped resolve and correct those errors.

Yeah "Prendiegirl," The Hood better NOT be "bearing false witness" (knowingly lying) about this very important issue, but ...
What if he got it right, and he is telling it true as is his custom to do so; what then?

Mr Richardson, you should go study the 10 Commandments especially the Nineth. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. And you call yourself a Christian.

Commissioner Richardson did not notify me of this issue ahead of the meeting; however, the information that he provided turned within me a switch that caused me to enjoin deep within this debate amongst The Hood and the other members of the Center /Left Coalition, where not one commissioner, not one bureaucrat disabused us of our understanding of Beaufort County's responsibilities regarding the recording and keeping of critical documents, i.e. Deeds, Deeds of Trust, and all other official documents of conveyance.
County Government's were formed and present before states were states, before this Constitutional Republic ever existed, and there is no more fundamental government power this close to the public. At the core of this official paradigm than the keeping of documents. If Commissioner Richardson is correct in his investigation, there would exist, in my knowledge, a fundamental schism between an official of elected office, and her fiduciary duty to the public; the perfect safety of their most important documents of record. I will explain in a later post employing these words as its preface.
