Just some thoughts.... I would bet that the Coroner's that served Long Island City were under the jurisdiction of the Queens County. If you visit the NYPL on Fifth Ave and 42nd you might check the W.P.A guidie, AKA Historical Records Survey, for their volume on NYC Vital Records.---I would think it sould include Coroner's Reports for Queens County if those records had existed at the time (c1940). While at the NYPL you should also check the guides, by various authors, of Genealogical records pertaining to new York City---ask the reference desk for those books. You might also check the library catalog for Queens College which is, or at one time was, a repository for New York city records. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [NYQUEENS] Coroner's Reports From: "[1]gc-gateway@rootsweb.com" <[2]gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> Date: Wed, May 09, 2012 3:01 pm To: <[3]NYQUEENS-L@rootsweb.com> This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
