The New York Researcher is the publication of The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society. Dick decided to join that group while we were attending the national conference, as he has several brick walls in New York. He received his first quarterly issue of their magazine this week. (They also publish The NYG&B Record; we haven't received a copy yet.)
One article features a New Jersey repository: Hudson County Genealogical & Historical Society, its public and member collections and a link to its website. Another article describes the History Center in Tompkins County in south central New York and its collections. Both articles would be of interest to anyone researching in those specific areas. A third article reports on the Rochester (Monroe County) Churches online indexing project.
Dick also purchased a copy of "New York City, Long Island, and Westchester County," the latest in the National Genealogical Society's Research in the States series.
Any of our members who are researching in New York or the New York City area can certainly plan to borrow these items during the coming season.
