Albany County Property Records Research Question

[Matt Whitermore]

Does anyone out there on BP have experience doing research using the Albany County tax rolls and/or the County Clerk's website for online records search?

I am coming across a number of properties in the tax roll where the "Deed Book / Page" indicated in the tax roll comes up with no results on the County Clerk's online records search. I thought perhaps there was a lag in the County uploading the records to the online search site, but I spoke with the Clerk's office and they indicated records are up to date. I also have a call out to the Tax assessor's office to see if I can learn anything from them on the issue, but wanted to see if anyone here is aware of the issue I am referring to.
