Hi all, There are two really useful pages added to GenLookups.com http://www.genlookups.com There's a page that has a genealogy newsfeed that shows news items from newspapers across the country that have to do with genealogy. Today's listings are particularly interesting. This page is at http://www.genlookups.com/news.htm The other one is the Miscellaneous Lookups page at http://www.genlookups.com/misc.htm This one has various types of lookup tools on the web that help you locate counties, cities, zip codes, genealogical societies, the most accurate time of day in any time zone, domain/IP converters, etc. Hope these help.

I will see if I can find any info in the Bulletin, but would like any info from any source, city directories, etc., that would locate the timetable more specifically.

    1. [CTNEWLON-L] 1776 Memorial - New London County
    2. Pat Sabin
    3. I'm forwarding a note from Larry Chesebro'. If anyone can help, please contact Larry directly at: [email protected] Larry has transcribed this document and I will be posting it to the New London County CTGenWeb in the next day or so. Larry's also offered to do lookups from Anna Chesebrough Wildey’s, Genealogy of the Descendants of William Chesebrough, (New York: Press of T. A. Wright 1903).. ****** Here's Larry's query: I’m trying to find out how to get a copy of a 1776 “memorial” signed by about 100 residents of New London county October 14, 1776. This memorial supposedly qualifies each signer for societies of the Revolution. It was presented to the General Assembly at Hartford and recorded in the Capitol Building (Revolutionary War, IV, Document 440). It is also recorded on page 629 of Duane Hamilton Hurd’s History of New London County, (J. W. Lewis & co, Philadelphia 1882). Hurd’s book is in the Library of Congress (control number 05013594, call number: Microfilm 18540 F) which I can at least get a copy of the page if nothing else. However, I would like to find out how to get a copy of the official document in Hartford. Do you have any suggestions? Attached is the memorial and why it was originated as recorded in Anna’s book FYI. Descendants of the signers should be able to confirm their descent from a Revolutionary War Patriot if by no other record than the memorial and it should be of interest to many researchers. I don’t know if you have a place for it on the WEB page but if you do go for it.
