The NYG&B’s most asked question is: “Where can I find New York birth, marriage, and death records?” This program provides an overview of New York’s civil vital records and demonstrates where to access available records. The differences between New York State and City records as well as the years of coverage will be discussed.
A re-airing of the March 2026 presentation on this topic will be followed by a live Q&A with Susan R. Miller.
This is a free online webinar, but registration is required.
This program on New York vital records is part of our Preserving Your New York Story series and is relevant for anyone with ancestors who came through New York City. This series is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
