About the Register: Perry County, Tennessee
The primary function of the Register is to make and preserve a record of instruments required or allowed by law to be filed or recorded, including but not limited to deeds, powers of attorney, deeds of trust, mortgages, liens, contracts, plats, leases, judgments, wills, court orders, military discharges, records under the Uniform Commercial Code (primarily fixture filings) and other types of documents. The records provide public notice of property ownership, liens, contracts and other transactions that affect the public interest. Most of the instruments recorded or filed in the register’s office relate to determining interests or rights in either real or personal property. Some instruments received also deal with a person’s legal status with regard to other persons or legal entities. The Register’s office is in the Perry County courthouse in Linden, which is the county seat, and by Tennessee law, the records and papers must remain in the office at all times.
