New York State can sometimes be described as a difficult place to research your ancestors. This program will teach you when modern Vital Records of Birth, Marriage, and Death began to be kept, the information they contain, where to locate them, and how to order copies of them. This program will not include New York City as they have a separate Vital Records system. This is a Zoom presentation that will be shown in the library or can be viewed from home. In-person viewing: No registration required.  Library members may register by visiting our website.  For additional inquiries, please call the library at 631-567-5079.
