We Are Not a Government Office or Records Custodian. This is a privately operated reference. We cannot retrieve or certify records, verify a person's current address, or change information held in a public roll. Direct those requests to the responsible office. For an emergency, call 911.

Find the Right Records Office
For the most common Hampden Township research questions, begin with the record category and the office that controls it:
- Address and recorded-land questions: consult By Street and the Cumberland County Recorder of Deeds
- Historic directory or family-history material: use the City Directories collection route through CCHS and County Archives
- A question about one identified person: use the Resident Lookup record-by-record approach
- Office and portal context: review the Hampden Township records offices reference
- An unavailable administrative record: make a focused request to the custodian under Pennsylvania's Right-to-Know Law, 65 P.S. §§ 67.101-67.3104
Recorded documents and land records: Cumberland County Recorder of Deeds, 1 Courthouse Square, first floor, Carlisle, PA 17013. Call 717-240-6370. The office posts general weekday hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.; record searching and access are available from 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The Recorder requests appointments because of occasional remote days. The county identifies Landex as its online records-access route and confirms that in-office access remains available.
For a public-records request, describe an existing record, the office likely to hold it, the relevant address or date range, and the preferred inspection or copy method. Under 65 P.S. § 67.901, an agency ordinarily responds in writing within five business days, subject to the law's permitted interim-response process and exemptions.
