From - Mike Disbrow, listowner Still trying to clear out my attic and basement, I have decided to get rid of a large collection of Connecticut Nutmegger magazines. Checking with Ebay, I find these things generally do not sell for very much, or do not sell at all, so I don't want to waste my time with that. I may end up giving them to a library or genealogical group, but I thought I would offer them first to this mailing list. I will send the whole collection to anyone interested who is willing to pay the shipping costs involved (unless you happen to live nearby and want to come by and pick them up, in which case please come soon!) These magazines, in case you are not familiar with them, have been published for many years, and contain a veritable treasure trove of Connecticut historical and genealogical records - births, deaths, marriages, cemetery records, etc. - queries, and articles by researchers and others. There are indexes too, to make it easier to search for particular names. This collection I have runs from 1968 to the first issue of 2000 - a total of 105 issues over 33 years. For the years 1968 through 1975 all four issues are combined in one volume per year, and after that there are four individual issues for each year. As far as I can see there are only two missing issues during that whole time: the one for March 1975, and the one for March 1993. (And I may still find those laying around somewhere.) The whole thing will weigh something like 55 to 60 pounds total, not including packaging material, so keep that in mind for the cost. If anyone writes me that they are genuinely interested, I'll try to come up with a figure for the cost of shipping. If I happen to get more than one reply, I may have to start a bidding war! LOL! Mike
