The New York Roman Catholic story is one that impacts thousands of people across the country.

Findmypast and the Archdiocese of New York have partnered to bring Sacramental Registers up to 1918 online for the first time.

Through this ground-breaking project, family historians are finally able to tell their New York Catholic story.

This presentation will expose unique records, background and history of the Catholic tradition in New York, and provide best practices for research both within the records and for historical context.
