Nope - it's here http://www.salemdeeds.com/goget.asp?type=street
Rockport is Essex county. You might want to see what someone paid if you are trying to determine how aggressive you were going to be in your offer. If say you were working a pre-foreclosure angle or some other such approach. I suppose you would do it "to see if there was meat on the bone" - not to be crass.

What someone paid for a property has little to do with what a property is worth today.

You can try the Registry of Deeds site. Link below
