Volunteer members of Heritage Hunters' Genealogical Projects Committee are responsible for the collection and preparation of records, presentation of the material on these pages, maintenance of the site, and interaction with readers who may wish to communicate about the Saratoga County NYGenWeb site. If you have a question about the material that is presented here or need a little guidance in your research in Saratoga County, feel free to contact us BUT If your email service provides a screening system to deter spam, make sure to list my email address (webmaster@saratoganygenweb.com) as one that is safe from which to receive a reply email. If your email system sends an automated response to my answer such as "To control spam, I now allow incoming messages only from senders I have approved beforehand. If you would like to be added to my list of approved senders, please fill out the short request form" I won't do that and won't bother to try again to respond. "Beforehand" means for you to arrange it in anticipation of a reply.

We do not maintain lists of available paid researchers. The site coordinator does not have lists of projects just waiting for you to complete.
Lastly, please do not ask us to do your research for you. We are a small number and wish to dedicate our time and energy to adding more genealogical and historical data to this site.


Genealogy and Local History:
Genealogy and Local History Heritage Hunters will meet Saturday, November 16th, at 1 pm at the Town of Saratoga Town Hall, 12 Spring St. in Schuylerville. “Two Vanished Villages” will be the program presented by Jack and Jan McEneny. They will share their personal searches for the villages where their ancestors lived. Both families emerged from the Irish famine that gripped County Mayo and made new homes at the “Glass Factory Village” near Lake Desolation in Saratoga County. Jack spent 19 years in the New York State Assembly and has also served as Historian for Albany County. Public is welcome. For info call 518-885-9309.

Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb was discontinued. Users are no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state. The archived lists are hosted at Internet Archive, but due to a Denial of Service hack, that site is not presently available. Repairs and updates to the site are reportedly in progress.
