Finding the Right Galveston Record
Use the official contact most closely tied to the record needed. The County Clerk can explain real-property, recorded-instrument, county-court, probate, marriage, and assumed-name routes. GCAD handles appraisal ownership, mailing address, value, exemption, and parcel fields. The Tax Assessor-Collector / Elections operation handles voter registrar functions. GTHC staff can help identify historical directory and archival holdings.
