Re: My Route Suggestion of the Old Abandoned LIRR Rockaway Beach Branch

If by Artemus you mean the HTML text tool, no. I just eyeballed the listings for items that sounded likely to be significant, I did say it could take time :) One of the things that came out after a few tries is that the lengthy documents occasionally have drawings at the back of 40-60 pages of legalese. Also the last page can have registry office notes about other lots that are also affected. City land seems to be weakly covered perhaps because there’s no tax records needed. The 1960’sh cutoff of online data seems to simply be a lack of microfilm/digitizing activity before then, too bad for some of the places where we would like to know the history.

Thanks, Bill
