Last week, Irish Genealogy News reported that the Troy Irish Genealogy Society (TIGS) released
another fantastic database of records. St.
John’s Cemetery, Albany, NY Interment Records, 1841- 1887 contains over
12,700 transcriptions, of which almost 4,000 of these are for people from Ireland.
What makes this record set even better is that the county of origin is provided
for almost 3,400 of those Irish-born people.
The importance of having local
knowledge and of preservation efforts are both seen in the description of how
these records came to light. The TIGS website outlines that the interment book was
in the possession of a former employee of another Catholic cemetery in the
area and was in a gradual state of decay. Who know what would have happened to these records if they had not been discovered
by those who knew the genealogical importance of the information contained in
that book.
You can read all about the
records and access the database in the TIGS website by clicking here.
Troy Irish Genealogy Society is
