New York Public Records online by County

Below is a list of New York counties with links to public records they offer online. (We’ll continue to add municipalities and other public records links.) These records include:

• tax & property & payment searches at Tax (also see MuniPro) also for boroughs of NYC, use this NYC Finance page

• property & document searches at Court Clerk

• and all types of courts at Courts (see NYCourts.gov for info on future online access to court records)

• land and plat surveys at GIS & Mapping (if no specific county GIS was found, we used the state GIS)

For genealogy and family history purposes we’ve used these resources to look up addresses of former homes, figure out when someone lived there, track the value of the real estate, & document upturns and downturns in a family’s economic situation. It’s also helpful to look up any recorded documents, probate, deeds, lawsuits to track family members & add some depth to the family history.
