Genealogical Journals of Jefferson County, NY - 1993

The Genealogical Journal of Jefferson County, New York, first published in 1989 as a quarterly, ran until 1999. At that time, the compiler, Patricia R. James, ceased the publication for the reason that the Jefferson County Genealogy Society had become solidly established and was publishing a respectable newsletter. The reason for the resumption of her newsletter in 2002 was simply that there is much information to share! Her newsletters are great supplemental material to the JCGS's Informer.
