Kanawha County Clerk Vera McCormick and some of her staff are trying to help flood victims and absorbing some of the expense they might face.
McCormick said in a news release that as a result of the June 23 flooding, people aren’t being charged for copies of deeds for affected properties. As of this week, 29 people have received copies of deeds at no expense.
