where can i find a list of all the mayors from the state of new york?

i found a list with every mayor from 1898 to 1998, each including
small biography and a picture

here is the link

my html might be a little bad so, in plai text,

This government site has links to every county, city, town & village
in New York State that has a website - following the links will get
most of what you are after, albeit in a laborious way.

I also found a list, but the original site is dead, so it's hard to
tell how authorative it is:
