Sweetwater County Clerk: "Military Discharge & Separation Papers - No Charge" (Cynthia L. Swenson)

The office. Cynthia L. Swenson is the Sweetwater County Clerk, at 80 W. Flaming Gorge Way, Suite 150, Green River, WY 82935; phone (307) 872-3732, Rock Springs line (307) 922-5208, fax (307) 872-3994, [email protected]; "Hours Monday - Friday 8:00 am - 5:00 pm; Recording Hours Monday - Friday 8:00 am - 4:00 pm; *Closed on legal holidays". The clerk is clerk to the Board of County Commissioners - the county's minutes are submitted by the clerk's Office Manager/Executive Assistant to the Board, Sally Shoemaker, and attested by Clerk Swenson - and "Recording of documents, the filing of maps, and maintaining cross-reference indexes to these records" stands in the duties list; the land records search on the i-Doc Market and an appointment scheduler for the Rock Springs office sit beside it. The discharge line. The Clerk's fee list prices the recordings - $1.25 filings not under the UCC Act, $75 plats, $50 maps, $12 Title 29 liens - and then: "Military Discharge & Separation Papers - No Charge". That is the county's own posting of W.S. 19-14-104: "Each Wyoming county clerk shall record in his office without charge of any fee a certificate of discharge or other separation from service documents from any person who has served in the United States armed forces at any time, and who has been honorably discharged or relieved from active service" (the State entry on the recording; the section's subsection (e) lets the clerk transfer the files to a public archive ten years after the veteran's death, or a hundred years from discharge).
