This data set contains alphabetical listings of more than 410,000 individuals who were married in or near New York City between 1622 and 1899. While over 90% of the marriages included in this data set were recorded in New York City and its boroughs, some were recorded on Long Island or elsewhere in the state. In addition, approximately 300 of the records are from Connecticut or New Jersey.

This data set is a valuable resource because New York's vital record keeping has historically been sporadic. Throughout New York's history, a variety of entities including school districts, city registrars, and county clerks have kept vital records. The records included here have not previously been collected with such detail or convenience. Each listing contains information about a publication in which the marriage was referenced and many include marriage certificate numbers. For each listed individual, information you can obtain includes his or her marriage date and the county in which the marriage was recorded. You can also learn where to find more detailed information about the marriage.
