When we developed the 1890s Census Substitute for Newtown, Connecticut several years ago and published the project in Connecticut Ancestry, on the Genealogy Club of Newtown's webpage, and mentioned in this blog, we hoped that other towns would follow suit.
While at the New England Regional Genealogical Society Conference we were pleasantly surprised to learn that the Windsor, Connecticut Historical Society along with the Descendants of the Founders of Ancient Windsor have developed the 1890s Census Substitute for the town of Windsor.
Compiled by Elaine D. Brophy, They Lived in Windsor is a booklet soon to be published by the Windsor historical society.
We continue to hope other towns will use their 1890 records and develop an 1890s Census Substitute.
