They don't really have much. But they have some things.

I am looking for information about my Beckwith/Cady/Lovejoy ancestors in the late 1700's and 1800's in the Chatham/Canaan area. I have found a web page for the Columbia County Historical Society museum in Kinderhook, NY and have sent an e-mail requesting information. As a possibly less biased informant, what would I expect to find- church records which might list baptisms, marriages and deaths, family histories? How complete are their holdings?

They have all that including newspaper clippings, cemetery records. As with any respository, they have whatever has been donated. If your family is there, you make out. I've always found something on families I've gone to research there. Good luck to you.
