Last October, I lectured at the Niagara Falls Public Library on Beginning Genealogy (so many people have piles of papers and records but do not know what to do with them). I have not done research there so can only tell you what they told me they have as records. Niagara County Federal Censuses - 1790 through 1920 Niagara County State Censuses - 1855 through 1885 Index to 1900 Index to 1850 for Town of Niagara Microfilmed newspapers - Niagara Gazette from May 1854 - Wilson Star 1890 - Niagara Courier - Daily Cataract - The Suspension Journal - The Niagara Falls Journal - City Directory from 1886 They also have a notebook of obituaries - 1979-1996 If you cannot find what you are looking for, as I've suggested before, visit the Niagara County Historian's Office in Lockport. Good luck, Ellen Colangelo
