Barnstable County Registry of Deeds Online Search
The Barnstable Registry of Deeds records can now be searched online. Once completed, the database will extend back to 1703, although that date is a bit misleading due to an event that occurred nearly 180 years ago.
On Oct. 22, 1827 a fire consumed the Barnstable County Court House, which stored the 93 books of the Registry of Deeds. Only one volume, Book 61 covering roughly the year of 1806, was saved. The records that do exist for dates prior to 1827 were re-created by recopying deeds and assembling paperwork held by families and attorneys.
We give the public full access to the same records available to anyone using the computer search screens at the Registry of Deeds building in Barnstable Village. We have made available to you the following:
Recorded Land indexes and images from 1940 to the present (complete).
Recorded Land Plan indexes and images (complete).
*Land Court name index (incomplete, see the caveat at the bottom of the Land Court by Name search result page), Land Court Document images from 1899 to the present.

@ Ann
You may be able to call/visit the Sandwich Town Hall and find out that info if it is unavailable through the Registry of Deeds search.

Not sure what difficulty you are having?
Try this:
Get to the site by clicking the “more information” link above.
On the left hand side, click the “Free Access” link. On this page (left side frame) click the “Click here to access CAPEVIEW” link. From there you can select whatever search you want. The results will appear in the right frame.
It looks like you also need to be using Microsoft Internet Explorer to access the site.
I need to get a copy of a deed for two time shares to arrange a sale and transfer of ownership. Where should I write? Can I do it by e-mail?
