There's a couple places on Rootsweb that might be of a help........
http://www.rootsweb.com/~rwguide/
Also, and maybe the best place, is
http://www.usgenweb.org/
Go to the particular County you will be at, and there usually is a list of
where to go, what is available, etc., on this page........
Above all, plan ahead.....that is, learn the hours, etc., be sure and have
pen/paper, etc. for notes.
Learn the rules BEFORE going there, so you are prepared, and not left w/o a
means of getting what you need.

I am planning on going to New York this summer to do some research on

archives, county courthouses, etc. This will be my first out--of-state
excursions and wanted to be as prepared as possible.
