Welcome to Tri-Counties site. Founded in 1996, it has developed into a massive library of local history for three counties on the NY-PA border. You can navigate easily from the CURRENT What's New Page. There you will find important news items to help you as well as the Navigational Buttons which also serve as the site map in the sidebars and the search engines at the bottom. To understand the full scope of available resources on the site, be sure to check out each of the subject level categories in the left sidebar. Once you know your way around you will want to use the appropriate township pages in the right sidebar. They are organized by a standard format of  categories of interest to historians and genealogists. The site is logically organized around the subjects one uses for historical or genealogical research AND around the places in the three counties this site covers. You will find an abundance of material you never expected to find once you take the time to explore fully. Start here and enjoy yourself - CURRENT What's New Page.
