News from the Registrar

The Registrar is working on a project of entering the original applications for certification of descent of the Founders of Norwich, CT into a computer program, and then onto CD, she is then filing the original in separate labeled folders for better storage. So far descents #01 to #200 (from 1901-1932) have been entered.

If you have a family member that is a descendant of the 35 original Founders of Norwich and would like to become a member of the Society of the Founders of Norwich you can e-mail the registrar at gencal@snet.net or at the museums address. The Registrar will send you a cover letter and an application to include your genealogy information.

There are over 500 members of the descendents of the Founders of Norwich and we invite you to join. Daniel E. Brown was accepted as a descendent of founder Robert Allyn in August 2006. Applications and instructions were sent to two people in January one from Kansas and the other from Texas.
