My name is Nancy
Washell, I am the CT State Host for Genealogy
Trails.
The goal for this site is to bring you
free genealogy facts and history to help you with
your search for ancestors.
A lot of the
work you see on this site is contributed by folks
around the world, sharing what they have found and
could be useful to others. We hope you will
share your information as well!
New Haven
County needs a host. If you have a
basic knowledge of website building and a love of
genealogy, won't you consider becoming a host for
this site or maybe one of the others that is also
in need of a host. Click on the Volunteer
button for more information. If you decide
it is something you'd like to pursue, contact
me or Kim
Torp and let us know so we can get
you
started.
New Haven County has special
interest for its colonial history. It was
the youngest of the four Colonies that formed the
New England Federation. The men who came
hither acted under no commission and had no
connection with any chartered company or
commercial association in England or
elsewhere. They felt at liberty to form for
themselves such government as should, in their
opinion, be best suited to the ends they had in
view when they came to this
country...
