Welcome to the Onondaga County archival records
listing. It has been our desire to bring together a listing of all
records of archival or historical value in one on-line location.
As lead agent in this inter-governmental cooperative project, the
Onondaga County Clerk is coordinating this county-wide effort. Ultimately,
we hope to include all county, town, village and city listings on
this web site. It is our objective to increase access to these records
for public and administrative use.
We also wish to thank the New York State Archives
who provided funding through the Local Government Records Management
Improvement Fund (LGRMIF). We also express sincere appreciation
to the participating local governments for their dedication and
cooperation in making this project a reality.
