New York City Public Libraries?
I was wondering where the MAIN new york public library is in Manhattan. I was told that at the main branch, they would have birth/death records in the genealogy section of deceased ancestors

The Main Branch of the New York Public Library is located on 5th Avenue and 42nd Street. The building stretches three blocks from 40th to 42nd Street.
If you need to get there by subway, take the number 7, "B", "D", "F" or "M" trains (Purple or Orange Line on the subway map) to Bryant Park.
Good luck
