  • Stamford Hazards and Community Resilience Workshop Summary Report Master
    Photo Credit: Bob Luckey City of Stamford Hazards and Community Resilience Workshop Summary of Findings City of Stamford Hazards and Community Resilience Workshop Summary of Findings Overview The need for municipalities, regional planning organizations, states and federal agen- cies to increase resilience and adapt to extreme weather events and mounting natural hazards is strikingly evident along the coast of Connecticut. Recent events such as Tropical Storm Irene, the Halloween Snow Storm, Hurricane Sandy, and most recently Blizzard Juno have reinforced this urgency and compelled leading communities like the City of Stamford to proactively plan and mitigate risks. Ultimately, this type of leader- ship is to be commended because it will reduce the exposure and vulnerability of Stam- ford’s citizens, infrastructure and ecosystems and serve as a model for communities across Connecticut, the Atlantic Seaboard, and the Nation. In the fall of 2013, a partnership formed between the City of Stamford, Western Con- necticut Council of Governments, and The Nature Conservancy. This partnership fo- cused on increasing awareness of risks from natural and climate-related hazards and to assess the vulnerabilities, and strengths within the City of Stamford. This was actual- ized through a series of presentations, meetings, and outreach to build stakeholder will- ingness and engagement followed by a Hazards and Community Resilience Workshop in December of 2014. The core directive of the Workshop was the engagement with and between community stakeholders in order to facilitate the education, planning and ulti- mately implementation of priority adaptation action. The Workshop’s central objectives were to: Deine extreme weather and local natural and climate-related hazards; Identify existing and future vulnerabilities and strengths; Develop and prioritize actions for the City and broader stakeholder networks; Identify opportunities for the community to advance actions to reduce risk and increase resilience comprehensively.

  • Connecticut Town Guides: Compiled from Collections at the CT State Library
    Connecticut Town Guides: Compiled from Collections at the CT State Library Compiled by Jeannie Sherman, Reference Librarian, History & Genealogy Unit, Connecticut State Library, 2016 Introduction Many people visit the Connecticut State Library to research their family history. We hold one of the best genealogy collections in Connecticut including our indexes to pre-1850 vital records, cemetery inscriptions, church & family bible records, marriage & death notices, and probate estate papers. Though these indexes are state-wide by surname, we also hold records for each town. As any person who attempts to do genealogy research in Connecticut discovers, knowing what town a family lived in is very important. Connecticut currently has one hundred and sixty-nine towns each with their own vital, land, and probate district chronology. As towns in Connecticut were created, most were set off from a parent town. County boundaries also changed throughout Connecticut's history, so knowing a parent town or knowing in which county a town was located over time can help researchers search for court and other records. The purpose of these Town Guides is to have in one place basic information about each town. This includes the year it was established, the parent town, historical county information, vital and church record information, a probate district chronology, and a list of cemeteries that were inventoried in the Hale Collection. For town vital records and church records, both the Connecticut State Library (CSL) microfilm number and the Latter-Day Saint (LDS) microfilm number are given where applicable. Researchers are encouraged to search by film number within the LDS catalog as many vital records can be found online.
