Hi All:
I have an OK researcher friend who is trying to find records of Justice of
Peace officers in an OK County. She has checked with the courthouse, county
clerk, court clerk, District Attorney and even OHS. None have a clue.

Have you ever done JP research? If so, where did you find the records?
Thank you for any help.
Best, Sandi
