New York Families and Sources in National Genealogical Society Quarterly

Author

National Genealogical Society Quarterly [NGSQ], founded in 1912, has published important articles on New York sources, and, to a lesser extent, on New York families. There is a detailed subject index to volumes 1-50 [1] including pension abstracts and queries, neither of which is indexed below. NGSQ is also included in the various composite subject indexes [2] that were cited in the two earlier articles in this series: "New York Families in The American Genealogist" and "New York Families and Sources in The New England Historical and Genealogical Register" (Newsletter 5:2:11-13; 6:1:6-7).

Given below are lists of articles found in volumes 1-76 of NGSQ on New York families and on New York sources. Articles by Dr. Kenneth Scott are marked with the symbol §; these were included in his bibliography published in the Record 126:46-54 (January 1995).

Articles in NGSQ volume 77 and later are mentioned in the “Seen Elsewhere” feature of the Newsletter and are also listed below. The NYG&B call number for NGSQ is CS 42 N4.
