This index encompasses references to more than 338,000 individuals across the entire state of New York. Family histories of this nature can prove elusive due to their infrequent publication for widespread distribution, yet they are invaluable to genealogists. A family history is a meticulously documented account of the relationships within a family, encompassing both close and distant connections. It typically includes biographical details on each family member, often enriched with illustrations or photographs of notable individuals or locations. Additionally, these histories provide insights into personal characteristics and ancestors’ daily lives, information seldom found in other genealogical records.
