Questions about official Clay County criminal records belong with the office that created or maintains the requested document. This private reference site cannot retrieve or change a record. The routes below identify the Clay County Sheriff, Circuit Clerk, Flora Police Department, and Illinois State Police services that can address common record requests.

This Is Not a Government Office. Clay County Criminal History is privately operated. It cannot retrieve criminal records, conduct official checks, correct agency files, or receive expungement and sealing papers. Those services remain with the responsible public office.

Need an Official Record?

Use the custodian that matches the Clay County record:

  • Court files and certified dispositions: contact the Clay County Circuit Clerk, 111 E. Chestnut Street, P.O. Box 100, Louisville, IL 62858, at (618) 665-3523
  • Sheriff arrest, booking, jail, and incident records: contact the Clay County Sheriff at P.O. Box 267, Louisville, IL 62858, or (618) 665-3316
  • Flora police reports: call Flora Police at (618) 662-9111 for incidents within Flora city limits
  • State conviction inquiries: use the Illinois State Police Bureau of Identification and its CHIRP service
  • Personal Illinois record review: request ISP Access and Review through an ISP-licensed live-scan vendor
  • Expungement or sealing: file the approved Illinois court forms with the Clay County Circuit Clerk

The sheriff and clerk are separate custodians. Call the sheriff for sheriff-created records and jail status. Call the Circuit Clerk for court dockets, filed charges, orders, dispositions, and certified court copies. Published courthouse hours were not confirmed in the research, so verify counter availability before traveling.
