Researching Records

Bow Town Clerk's office has an ongoing preservation program of our historic town records. Please note that the town is required by the State of New Hampshire to charge a $15 research fee for each name searched, whether or not a record is found. Additionally, if a copy of a record is found, only certified copies can be issued. No plain photocopies can be distributed.  Please contact the Town Clerk's office to make an appointment on researching these wonderful town resources.
