List members may be interested in the latest transcription project of the Troy Irish Genealogy Society - www.troyirish.com This project will add approximately 7,000 records to the over 200,000 records currently listed under PROJECTS on the TIGS website. If anyone would like to help with transcribing these records they can contact me off list at: seamus@nycap.rr.com The latest transcription project is an Index of Marriage Notices Appearing In Lansingburgh Newspapers - 1787-1895. This index was compiled in 1938 from the following Lansingburgh Newspapers: American Spy Federal Herald Lansingburgh Advertiser Lansingburgh Chronicle Lansingburgh Courier Lansingburgh Democrat Lansingburgh Gazette Lansingburgh Daily Gazette Lansingburgh Times Northern Centinel Lansingburgh, by the way for those not in the Capital Region, was the first chartered village in Rensselaer County and was settled around 1763. In 1900 Lansingburgh became part of the City of Troy, NY. The index contains the names of the brides and grooms with their place of residence, the date of marriage, name and date of the newspaper where the notice was published along with the page and column number where the notice can be found. Again, if interested in working on this project, please let me know. Thanks, Bill McGrath TIGS Project Coordinator Clifton Park, NY
