There may or may not have been fire, but I do know that
the courthouse records still do exist. Particularly birth
records, wills, and deeds. They were microfilmed by the
LDS (aka Mormans) and the films are available for order
at LDS Family History Centers. I've also used them at
the courthouse itself. It was in microfilm that I looked
at death records.
