Where this came from
  • Mailing address, phone, fax from the Mississippi Judiciary, Chancery Court Clerks list (January 17, 2024), not from a page of the office's own.
  • Street address: the only source is the Department of Revenue's chancery-clerk sheet, which was wrong in 4 of 16 entries checked (25%), so it is not used.
  • Hours: office page has no hours.

Call or check the county website for the Chancery Clerk's office address and hours.

Mississippi Fee Authority

Mississippi sets the chancery clerk's recording fee by state law — § 25-7-9(1)(b) — and § 25-60-5 adds $1 where the county collects the archive fee:

“Recording each deed, will, lease, amendment, subordination, lien, release, cancellation, order, decree, oath, etc., per book and page listed where applicable, each deed of trust, or any other document, for the first five (5) pages”
