New York State Comptroller's Office Geographical Registers of Comptroller's Tax Deeds

Geographic by county, then chronological.

These registers provide geographic access to conveyances by the comptroller of non-resident lands sold for unpaid taxes.

Each entry provides: name of town or number of ward; lot number; year of tax; description of parcel conveyed; acreage; amount of tax due; date of payment; name of person paying; amount of tax paid; total taxes; interest due; cost of sale; amount parcel was sold for; portion of parcel sold; acres sold; name of purchaser; date of redemption or conveyance; name of redeemer or grantee; and amount paid to redeem.

A1071-78: These eight disbound volumes cover 1815-1845.

A1071-85: These registers covering 1924-1926 contain entries for only Greene, Herkimer, Saratoga, and Sullivan counties, since the comptroller conducted no tax sales for non-Forest Preserve counties after 1893.

A1071-85A: These conveyances date from 1895 and 1900 and cover Richmond County only.

There are no restrictions regarding access to or use of the material.
