Thanks to all those who responded to my question
regarding finding aids to town government records.
Below are some of the sites and contacts
recommended by respondents. I particularly found the Town of Hempstead website
to be very useful.
Town of Hempstead, Archives: contact Daniel
M. Fisher, Town Clerk. This one has particularly good administrative
histories. It appears to be available on line at: http://www.townofhempstead.org/home/tohtc/tcarchiv.htm
Town of Huntington, Town Clerk's Records Center and
Archives: contact Antonia Mattheou, the Town Archivist. 631
351-3271, or e-mail the town clerk, Jo-Ann Raia at clerk@town.huntington.ny.us
Municipal Archives-Windsor Public Library. This document is RAD-compliant (Cdn "Rules for Archival Description"). You should be able to access it at www.city.windsor.on.ca/wpl/libraries/archives, and will need Adobe Reader to examine the guide. City of Fredericksburg

If you have trouble linking I started at the Mary Washington College site (mwc.edu) then to the Historic Preservation department and clicked on Fred. resources. Eric J. Roth Archivist/Librarian
