WELCOME to The CTGenWeb Project Proud member of The USGenWeb Project since 1996 Connecticut, the "Nutmeg State," is one of the thirteen original States. From east to west it extends about ninety-five miles, from north to south about sixty miles. It is bounded on the north by Massachusetts, on the east by Rhode Island, on the south by Long Island Sound, and on the west by New York. Read a brief early History of Connecticut. We hope you will find plenty of great information to assist in your genealogy research. All of us here at CTGenWeb are volunteers with special connections to this state, and we hope to make this journey fun and informative for you. There are many ways that you can contribute to the success of this project. If you have information to share, please contact the appropriate County Coordinator or State Coordinator. You'll find more about making a contribution HERE. The USGenWeb Project was established in 1996 by a group of genealogists who shared a desire to create online centers for genealogical research. Each of our literally thousands of web sites have been created and are maintained by volunteers. Some of the offerings you're likely to see in these diverse and creative sites include query boards, listings of local sources for records, county and state histories, online genealogy books, research tips, maps, and links to helpful internet resources. You'll even find transcribed records online, accessible for free from the comfort of your home. Our Special Projects, such as the nationally-recognized Tombstone Project, assist in the effort to gather these record transcriptions. The USGenWeb Archives are a major repository of data, which is provided by helpful contributors - people just like you!
