What i do when searching for the many 'illusive' townships, burgs, villiages, etc in CT and come up dry is...... write to the State of CT, Dept of Public Health, POB 340308, Hartford, CT 06134-0308. Send them as much information as you can. ie, name, town, closest date of birth, death, marriage, etc. be as specific as you can, including any various spellings. make checks payable to to: Treasurer, State of CT. currently, price is $5.00 each. This is for records AFTER 1897 only. If they can't help you directly, they will direct you to the correct town, with address and a form letter to send to that correct town. New Haven is notoriously put off by requests, but i found when i use the 'form letter' sent by the Dept of Health, i got a pretty quick turn around time. I found my gggrandmother, an immigrant, this way. Was not sure which name she would have been buried under, and had NO idea where in CT she was buried...maybe waterbury, maybe Derby, maybe New Haven, maybe Watertown...they located her under her american 'nickname' and her married surname having died in new haven...and after getting the death cert from NH, found where she was buried, a 'missing' other daughter she was living with at the time of her death, and the name of her father and mother in the 'old country'. again, these are for records AFTER 1897 ONLY, the public health department does not have records prior to that time. good luck, [email protected] > [Original Message] > From: Tami Parise <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Date: 5/31/2005 2:04:50 PM > Subject: [GenCT] Where to send for certs? > > Hi: > > I have a question, if a person resided and died in a house in East Haven, would I get the death cert from East Haven?
