Why Some Older Instruments Don’t Have Images in eCCLIX

If an image doesn’t appear in eCCLIX or CCLIX, the document likely was never scanned.

McCracken County, for example, only scanned deeds and mortgages before 2015.

To confirm whether an image exists:

1. Search the instrument number in eCCLIX.

2. Check CCLIX for the same document.

3. Note the year of recording — older records may predate imaging.

If neither system shows an image, contact the county clerk’s office for further assistance.
