Event Details

Join us on July 9 at 7 pm with Michael Cassara for New York in Postcards: Bringing Deltiology to your Genealogy!.

To genealogists with an affinity for New York research, postcards can be an overlooked and occasionally invaluable means of peering further into the lives of our ancestors. Both the front and back of postcards can be an invaluable means of peering further into the lives of our ancestors. The front of the cards can offer illustrations of long demolished places of interest. Messages on the back may shed light on an ancestor’s travels and interactions, giving the researcher a clearer sense of long-forgotten happenings.
