History is a tale told over time and shared from generation to generation and it is, in part, because people who have come in centuries before us have passed down what they witnessed, saw, heard, discovered, and preserved moments in time.

The history of Monmouth County can be told to tell and show what happened during the Revolutionary War to modern history of today to include the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the devastation caused by Superstorm Sandy, and the Covid-19 pandemic among other events thanks to the Archives division at the Monmouth County Clerk's Office.

There are so many different services, programs, assistance available, and much more within the work being done at the Monmouth County Clerk's Office than perhaps you may have even known about and it could now be a total life changer for any number of needs or inquiries in your life.

For a look inside the happenings at the MCCO, Monmouth County Clerk Christine Hanlon joined us on 'Shore Time with Vin and Dave' on 94.3 The Point on Sunday morning to share the workings of the Archives Division, County I-D's, Veterans and Gold Star Family member cards, Swearing in of Public Notaries, Honoring our Heroes - Military Appreciation Program, Property Fraud Alert Service, and much more.

And, as we head towards the U.S. semiquincentennial in 2026, Monmouth County is among those already beginning to work on preservation of history and ways to celebrate and you can help in that effort along with other historical preservation.
