Everyone You can now search by each state separately on the Main Page use the pull down States for New York http://www.newspaperabstracts.com/usa.html Just remember, If you can't find your family name spelled one way try other ways & on the abstracts, sometimes we can't read the names so just because it doesn't pop up, doesn't mean, it is not posted your family name could look like this E?ISEN??WER which means we could make out the name & also - something that was posted today will not show up on the SEARCH until a week later, has to be indexed & the Indexing is only done once a week Glenda
