This genealogical presentation will explore record collections held by the New York City Municipal Archives. This vast trove holds details of New York City residents and sometimes of those passing through the city. Join us to learn more about getting started with New York City’s records. All attendees will receive a digital copy of Aaron Goodwin’s New York City Municipal Archives: A Guide for Family Historians.
Participants can join us in person at the NYG&B New York City office or virtually. This is a free program, but registration is required.
