How should I enter my first name?
If you have a first name that can be spelled several ways, or that is easily misspelled, you may wish to only use the first letter of your first name to reduce the likelihood of a missed notification.
What if my last name has a space between two names?
In this case, you may wish to submit two forms – one that has the space and one that omits it. For example, you may wish to register as Van Cleave and VanCleave.
My name is common – will I receive notifications that do not pertain to me?
Yes, it is possible. You can always ask the Barton County Register of Deeds to review the document for which you received a notification to determine if it applies to you.
How should I enter my business’s name?
Enter your business’s name on the second line of the registration form and do not enter anything on the line for First Name or First Initial. If your business starts with the word “The,” omit it.
