Start with the Superior Court of Maine, County of York Case Records Search. Some records or document images are restricted from remote display and may require an in-person visit or copy request.

Use the York County Assessor for parcel and assessed-value information, the Clerk-Recorder for deeds and other recorded documents, and the Treasurer-Tax Collector for tax bills and payments.

The York County Clerk-Recorder maintains county birth, death and marriage records. The Maine Department of Public Health also maintains statewide vital records. Eligibility, identification and notarization requirements depend on the record and copy type.

Maine agencies generally have 10 days to determine whether a request seeks disclosable records and notify the requester. A limited extension may apply in unusual circumstances. The records themselves may take longer to review and produce.
