Here are some Connecticut sites I posted to someone on another "list" for any of you interested in Connecticut. I am not as familiar with searching Connecticut BUT since it borders upstate NY to the east and sits across the Long Island Sound from Long Island....many immigrants did settle there. I looked to see if there were any interesting sites....here are some that might help. I think you may need to register at some and/or even may have to subscribe. The "Godfrey Memorial Library" I have been told is a great and extensive site. I intended to subscribe but never got to it lol. It is not expensive in comparison to other sites and I hear they have records dating very far back. For 1 year it costs $35.00 (US). _http://www.godfrey.org/_ (http://www.godfrey.org/) These sites may be helpful...if not for searching then at least for being able perhaps to give you the info on where to look. I have not used them so I am not sure exactly what they contain...but they look very promising...

Sorry I couldn't do better for you. Good Luck... Sue in NY **************Create a Home Theater Like the Pros. Watch the video on AOL Home.
