New York State Censuses: You Won’t Believe What’s Hiding In There!
New York State conducted 10 State censuses between 1825-1925. Some of the questions asked on the State censuses provide details prior to the beginning of civil registrations and decades before a similar question was asked on the Federal censuses. If you have New York State genealogy research to do, this is a record collection that you’ll want to familiarize yourself with!
