I called the county clerk office for Sumter county asking how I might aquire copies of vitals for family who lived in Sumter in the 1830s.

I was told I had to put my request in writing what records I was requesting and snail mail it to their office. They would then reply back with a snail mail letter what they could find and the cost to obtain copies of the vitals I was requesting. They dont comminicate any information over the phone or via email.

That has been nearly 2 months ago and no reply.

Anyone else had such experience? Or something different experience?

Anyone who lives local who might help me out with my request? I dont live in AL.
