The second file of cemetery records from Indian River Cemetery in Clinton is
now on line. I'd like to thank Janece Streig again for sending me the listing
so I could transcribe it. This file includes Sections VII, VIII & about half of IX,
or about 33 pages of the listing, for a total of 66 pages out 100 on line.

I read your web site re CT vital records with interest. I have been having
similar problems with Coopertown clerks in NY.
Does anyone know of a similar web site for the regulations in NY State?

Records from CT,
Hi,
There are at least 11 CT Schutz men listed in the Civil War index. I am
hoping to hear from a descendent of any or all of them. I am primarily
looking for a daughter or sister named Margarethe, b. 11 Jan. 1840 in
Birkenfeld, Mittelfranken, Bayern. She married in NYC in 1868 and moved to
Bridgeport, CT sometime between June 1872 & October 1874,
Any little clue as to her family will be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks,
June

I'm looking for information after 1880 on Edward A Butler (born 1864)
and his sister Marian Butler (born 1862) . Both were born in New Haven
and lived there in 1880 with their parents John H. and Susan J. Butler.
I would appreciate any information available.
The inscriptions for Greenwood Cemetery in Avon, CT has just been put
online at my web site. This includes a lot of burials prior to 1830 when
Avon Became a town, so part of there would be recorded as being in
Farmington.
I will later be adding two more Avon Cemeteries that are older than this
one with more inscriptions of people recorded as being in Farmington.

HI Barbara Another Barbara here. In my original post, I did make the same
comment. Most of the clerks have been very helpful--until I met the town of
Granby!!! Even the towns I wrote to in MA got back to me--some by long
distance phone call. I have heard from 7 of 8 towns in just 2 weeks--much
quicker than expected. In the past, in several towns, while I was looking
thru the vital records, the clerk was running around checking other books
for the names I was looking for and running anything that might c
There are several reasons for the problems with local clerks.
1) CT is geographically next to NY. Specifically NYC. Western CT towns
continually have to question that the requestors for information are
legitimate. Years back it was a big problem that birth certificates were
being obtained for identity changes.
2) Southeastern CT hosts two Native American Tribes with successful Casinos.
When it the Casino's opened they were overnight surprise success. No one in
the US would even loan the first tribe the mo
I have been searching for my Joseph for the last 10 years and have given
up and will now start writing my family book. I know that he was born
in NJ in about 1810 and died in Il and was buried in Wisc in 1881. In
between, he lived in Herkimer County NY and married Adeline Dickins.
They had 4 boys before moving to Wisc in about 1849. The 1880 census
stated that his father was born in CT and his mother NY.
Thought I would put out one more query before I start writing.
Any one see any connections wit

A little used resource is the user databases at rootsweb. They have them
for census records, birth, marrage, Ect. too many to list.
They may be accessed through:

If you have records that you think will be of help to others you can see
how to send them in at:
http://userdb.rootsweb.com/guidelines.html
For each type of record they show the format to put them in. There can
be missing fields if you only have an index such as for census listings,
but even indexes can help othe
To All,
I recently went to the town hall in Willimantic,Ct. and I met with the Town
Clerk,Ann Bushey. She couldn't have helped me enough to find what I wanted. I
spent about six hours doing my research. As I found my information,she would
make copies for me.She pointed out which books would be of interest to me and
was just so very accommodating. I'm sorry that all of you weren't as lucky as
I was.
