Hi just a qiuck note about the New York State Census's I have been a
member of Central New York Genealogical Society of Syracuse, NY in the
past. I know they have made a dent in abstracting and publishing these
census record one a year for about 25years now. I just checkec their website
shown below, it shows what they have available and the prices. Check their
site if interested. John C Van Buskirk
