I have to put in my 2 cents worth here...........about going through a library to access Heritage Quest. Here in TX you can go there through the TX state library site, just using your local library's access code, which is freely given.........ALL it costs is for you to have a library card. Which is a lot cheaper than $35.00 a year. So ask your local library. Sharon
If your local library has a subscription to it, yes, that will work. There's two differences in the situation. The Godfrey Library is a private library, I believe. Not a small local library. And it specializes in local histories from all over the country and even the world, though mostly the international histories are British. I have seen French and Spanish language books there, also. Secondly, it would be free or almost so if you live in CT. I live in CA. And my local library does not have a subscription. So, Godfrey works just fine for me. It's a good idea to check your local libraries--it's very possible you can get HQ for free with a card. But, short of that, Godfrey is a terrific on line source.
