Welcome to our site's new home page. We are working at getting files transferred and re-labeled with correct site-internal links. If you notice some page which contains incorrect links or is missing an image, we will work to correct that.

Please report broken or incorrect links to the site coordinator, Lynn Calvin .

Volunteer members of Heritage Hunters' Genealogical Projects Committee are responsible for the collection and preparation of records, presentation of the material on these pages, maintenance of the site, and interaction with readers who may wish to communicate about the Saratoga County NYGenWeb site. If you have a question about the material that is presented here or need a little guidance in your research in Saratoga County, feel free to contact us . We do not, however, maintain lists of available paid researchers. The site coordinator does not have lists of projects just waiting for you to complete. Projects underway and contemplated are coordinated by Frank Goodway to avoid duplication of effort.

Lastly, please do not ask us to do your research for you. We are a small number and wish to dedicate our time and energy to adding more genealogical and historical data to this site.

1890 CENSUS PROJECT

        A group of Heritage Hunters is gathering material to start the 1890 Census Project. The purpose is to collect information to be used to create a database of Saratoga County residents during the year 1890. This database will serve as a substitute for the destroyed 1890 Federal Census. We are looking for people who are willing to help in two ways.
        One - Volunteer your time in looking up resources.
        Two - Let us know if you have material in your private collections that relate to residents of Saratoga County in 1890.

Private collections material can be scanned, loaned to us, or copied/transcribed in some fashion. We will be setting up a format at a later meeting. Let us know what you have available.
