Discover Your NYC Ancestors with This New Historical Records Database

Ever want to know what your New York City ancestors were up to in the 1800s? The city government is making that information more accessible than ever. 

Sometimes I like to mix it up a bit and post about something a little different from the norm…

New York City just launched an online database of over 9.3 million historical records of births, deaths, and marriages across the five boroughs. The project, dubbed the Historical Vital Records Project, gives access to genealogical data that can be searched by area, type of record, and even first and last name. While the digitization process isn't complete yet, it is already past 70%, and once finished it will flaunt a collection of 13.3 million online records.
