Big Win for Genealogists: NY Death Index
Big Win for Genealogists: NY Death Index
Reclaim the Records has notched another big win for genealogists and freedom of information with the public release of the FULL New York State Death Index, from 1880 through the end of 2017. And as soon as they hand over the data, it will be published online, for free, in both searchable and downloadable formats, without any restrictions or usage contracts or paywalls, so that neither the state nor commercial entities can ever withhold it again.
