The Hampden County Registry of Deeds 2011 Mitten Drive a Success!!!

Each year, the staff at the Hampden County Registry of Deeds begins a hat, scarf and glove collection for children of the Springfield school system. Articles are not only donated by staff, but also by other Hall of Justice employees, attorneys and title examiners. Yesterday, on the first day of winter, Register Ashe delivered these items to students at the Homer Street School. The students were thrilled with their finds and we were beyond pleased to have been able to bring a bit of Christmas spirit to our community. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the staff at the Hampden County Registry of Deeds!

ANNOUNCEMENT FROM REGISTER ASHE

I am pleased to inform you that as of January 1, 2012, the Hampden County Registry of Deeds will no longer charge a $.50 per page fee for copies to our online users that print documents from their homes or offices. As you may know, in July 2011 we also eliminated the $100 annual fee for those choosing to open an online account with our office. I have made these changes in an effort to make conducting business with our office easier and more affordable. The $1.00 per page fee will remain in effect for certified copies of documents purchased within our office.
