The Virtual Archives’ initial website, "Westchester
County and the Civil War," was made possible in part with
a grant from the New York State Archives Local Government Records
Management Improvement Fund, as well as a generous gift from
Westchester resident Dolly Maass. The second offering, the "Historic
American Engineering Record of the Bronx River Parkway Reservation"
is the online version of the report compiled by the National Park
Service in conjunction with the county’s Dept. of Parks,
Recreation and Conservation and Dept. of Information Technology. “Historical
Treasures of Westchester,” the third presentation, displays
those documents in the Westchester County Archives and the Westchester County
Historical Society collections that have special value for research. This
section of the site was supported in part by a grant from Fuji Photo
Films, USA.
Our paramount goal is to make accessible to the public the primary
documents represented here, which reside physically in a variety
of locations. Major contributors to the Virtual Archives:
