If you're involved in Connecticut Genealogy research — or any genealogy for that matter — we expect that you will find this section of our site to be of interest. Our goal is to introduce you to the basic elements of family history research and then make sure you have an easy way to connect with Connecticut Genealogy resources.

If you have deep roots from more than one family line in the Nutmeg State, the Connecticut Society of Genealogists Web site has an extensive collection of material specific to Connecticut. Their online collection is growing and includes information from the Colonial period prior to statehood. We will focus primarily on general topics of interest and materials found in our 8Towns region.

BREAKING GENEALOGY NEWS:
London-based FindMyPast.com (formerly 1837online.com) has launched www.AncestorsOnBoard.com, a new service which includes 1890-1960 outward passenger lists from all U.K. ports. The project is being undertaken in cooperation with The National Archives. These original records have never been filmed before and include the 1912 departure of The Titanic, among others. Known as BT27, the availability of this record set is likely to be the most significant new genealogy offering of 2007.

NOTE: We're still working on many aspects of this site, but are hoping to have this section completed within the next two months. If you are interested in Connecticut Genealogy, we encourage you to visit this section often to see the new materials that will be posted here. In the mean time, you can enjoy some Facts From This Day in History.
