Lookup Guidelines

 

Put PLYMOUTH COUNTY LOOKUP in caps in subject of message. This will ensure that your request is not accidentally overlooked or deleted.

Put the name of the document you are requesting the lookup from in the first line of the message.

Limit your request to one or two specific names.

Limit your request to no more than 3 names per email. Remember YOU are not the only one wanting answers and help.

Don't forget to thank your volunteer for their time and effort. As a courtesy, it doesn't hurt to offer a donation for services rendered. Some volunteers take no gratuity, but let them give you the chance to tell you that.
