Why This Site Exists
Printed local directories ended decades ago, while the records behind them spread across offices. DeKalb County keeps ownership, deeds, courts, elections, and probate files. Dunwoody keeps its municipal permits, code cases, police material, and city proceedings. Historical volumes sit at the Decatur Library, DeKalb History Center, and Georgia repositories. We bring those search tools, contacts, coverage notes, and access rules together for Dunwoody research.
What You Will Find Here
- Pages by angle: the street directory (address-keyed records), the city directory (the historical shelf), and the resident lookup (one-person searches)
- The rolls and offices: assessor, recorder, elections office, court clerk, vital records, the library's local history collection
- Walkthroughs: how to trace who lives on a street, how to read a directory entry, how to follow a household across the decades
- Access rules: what Georgia law opens, what stays closed, and how a custodian request works when an item is not online
What We Cannot Do
This is a privately run reference site, not part of Dunwoody, DeKalb County, Georgia, any court, or any library. Those boundaries matter:
- We cannot confirm whether a specific person currently lives in Dunwoody
- We cannot pull, certify, or change any record on your behalf
- We cannot add anyone to, or remove anyone from, any roll or database
- We cannot give legal advice about a record or a dispute
- We cannot promise that every coverage year, link, or office detail here is current at this moment
Only the custodian office can confirm, certify, or correct a record. Nothing found through this site may be used for credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions.
