It seems to me that Godfrey's "NEW RESOURCES" is just a list sites that are
already available to the pubic. A creative google search would be effective.
Sorta like Cyndi's list.

Hi Barb,

Yes, but many didn't remain in Connecticut, so it's nice to be able to
follow their trail to wherever they ended up across the country by using one
large collection of material.

And more than a few ancestors who ended up in CT came from other places,
Quebec for example. I think the Godfrey is striking a good balance now.
And eventually it looks like they're attempting to digitize more of their
own holdings which will bring more Ct. material online. The additional
non-Ct holdings also attract more subscribers, which in turn allows more
financial leeway for digitizing Ct. material, and so on...
