Its collections include a variety of genealogical sources such as deeds and other property and land records; birth, death, and marriage records; published genealogies; tax lists; immigration, census, and court records; and other sources such a maps, manuscript collections, newspapers, and photographs. The collections include materials from the 1730s to the present. Researchers in the Reading Room may also access Ancestry, Fold 3 and Heritage Quest databases.
