Macon Co, MO Divorce File
Well over a year ago I contacted the Macon County Clerk in MO requesting information on obtaining the divorce file for John Riley McCarty and Anna Laura Reed. The woman I spoke with was very rude and kept trying to blow me off. She said the file was in a trailer somewhere and that the County Clerk employees couldn't be bothered to do their jobs and retrieve it. I informed her that it was their mandate to provide access to public records on file. She said that someone would get back to me but that it wouldn't be soon. Here, over a year later, I haven't heard form anyone. I suspect that even if I drove out to Macon, MO, they would find an excuse to not do their job and provide access to public records.
The reason for my rant is, I wanted to see if there is anyone in Macon Co, MO who could help me obtain this file. I don't mind paying for the help. I know the exact date and case number. Thanks.
