Genealogy Day March 12, Note that Genealogy Day is coming up this weekend! What do you have planned? If nothing else, it’s an excuse to drop everything, contact a few relatives, input some data into your genealogy database, scan a few photos – and maybe even get out and do some original research.
The following excerpt is from an article in the March 7 edition of metrowny.com. It’s about how the Erie County, New York County Clerk’s office is helping celebrate the holiday.
Saturday March 12th is Genealogy Day, a national recognition of family history and the perfect time to look back at your heritage. Researching your genealogy can be a great new hobby, and a way to feel connected to your ancestors and family. And, the Erie County Clerk’s Office can help.
The basement records room at Old County Hall is a treasure trove of information, including birth records from 1881-1913, court records from 1957 to the present, deeds from 1808 to today, divorces filed in Erie County from 1957 to the present, marriage records from 1878-1935, naturalizations from 1827-1929, military discharges filed with the County from 1919 to the present and other miscellaneous records from 1808 onward. In addition, the Clerk’s office can obtain many older records within 24-hours notice.
