The county named in the Venue is where what occurred?

  1. The document was signed

  2. The notary was licensed

  3. The signer personally appeared

  4. The notary practices

The correct answer is: The signer personally appeared

The Venue is the county stated in a notarized document. This is the county where the signer personally appeared to sign the document in the presence of a notary. Option A is incorrect because the document may have been signed in a different county, but notarized in the county listed in the Venue. Option B is incorrect because the notary may be licensed in a different county, but still notarized the document in the county listed in the Venue. Option D is incorrect because the notary's practices are not relevant to the county where the document was notarized. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
