Welcome

Oswego and all of it's great resources have been moved from the RootsWeb / Ancestry Servers.
This process has been long and intense. We hope that you will find new and valuable Genealogical and Historical information.
The transition involves a lot of html code changes, so if you find something that does not work [especially links] please let us know so that we can troubleshoot and repair!

Additionally: Oswego County is available for Adoption.
If you have a local connection to Oswego County or to New York in general and Web Design Skills [or a desire to learn], please consider joining the NYGenWeb as a County Coordinator.
Requirements are simple: Please use this link for Particulars and Contact Tim or Bob for more information

We wish to thank all of the former County Coordinators, Volunteer Transcribers and Contributors
Without their dedication and perseverence there would be nothing here for visiting Researchers.
