This is a free-to-use, enhanced index for FamilySearch’s digital collection, New York, Land Records, 1630-1975. The original scans—capturing over 32 million land transactions in all—come from 59 of New York’s 62 counties (Franklin, Nassau, and Queens excluded) and were first microfilmed by the Genealogical Society of Utah, a precursor to FamilySearch. The collection includes a range of property documents: deeds, mortgages, patents, and land grants.
Ranked search results are organized into subsets of exact matches and near matches. These results are then presented in chronological order, while also being in accord with any selected date filters.
