New London County is a county in Connecticut. Connecticut has no county government: the county is a judicial and geographic area, and the record keepers are the towns and the state. Its public records are not in one place: court cases, jail bookings, deeds, property values, vital records and records requests each belong to a different office. This guide names the office that holds each kind of record, links to its own website and gives the phone number and address where the office publishes them. SearchSystems verified 1 county office page for New London County, every one opened and checked, and lists 1 more whose site blocks automated checks.
