DESCRIPTION: The Washington County recorder kept a mortgage index beginning in 1954, which identifies mortgages and mortgage related documents. She recorded this index in two separate volumes, one referencing mortgagors and the other mortgagees. For each entry, she noted the type of document, the names of mortgagee and mortgagor, the date of the document and date of filing, and a description of the property. She included the book and page number where the document was recorded. The index refers to mortgages, corporate mortgages, trust deeds, and satisfactions or releases of mortgage. Frequently, releases of mortgage also include the book and page where the mortgage was originally recorded. Infrequently, the index also refers to chattel mortgages, contracts, liens and releases of a lien, notices of default and Federal income tax liens and releases.
