Where is the notary's commission recorded?

  1. A book in the local bookstore

  2. A book at the notary's home

  3. An online database

  4. A book in the office of the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas, of the county of residence

The correct answer is: A book in the office of the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas, of the county of residence

The notary's commission is typically recorded in the office of the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas, of the county of residence. This is because the notary's authority is granted by the state government and is regulated by the county in which they reside or work. Option A is incorrect because a local bookstore would not have access to the notary's commission. Option B is incorrect because the notary's home is not an official designated location for recording commissions. Option C is incorrect because an online database may not be the official record of the notary's commission, and may not be accessible to the public. Therefore, the most accurate and reliable option is D, recording the commission in the office of the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas.
