The Rochester Genealogical Society will present a special program, “Diving Into the Holdings of the New York State Archives,” on Saturday, Nov. 14 from 11 a.m. to noon.
The presenter will be Jane E. Wilcox, the author of New York State Archives Guide: For Family Historians, Biographers, and Historical Researchers.
The New York State Archives (NYSA) at the Cultural Education Center in Albany holds a diverse collection of state governmental records. Come learn about both familiar and lesser-known resources that can help advance your New York family history research. The program will also feature a demonstration of how to use the finding aids on the NYSA website, helping researchers identify and locate records that may hold important clues to their family history.
The cost is $2o for members and $50 for non-members (which includes an RGC membership through June 30, 2027)
The lecture will be recorded and made available for 60 days following the event. To register, go to: https://nyrgs.org/upcoming-events
