Bible Records are an often over looked source of information. We need to remember that the printing date of the Bible would be prior to the date of any vital information, or we are relying on the person who added the information’s memory.
Connecticut Bible Records at the Connecticut State Library
The Connecticut State Library hosts an impressive index of approximately 25,000 transcribed entries from family Bibles and records, encompassing the 1600s to the early 1900s. Researchers can find linked volumes that detail multiple family members, with each entry noting the original source and ownership. The records are accessible online and users are encouraged to utilize the available index for navigation. Please note that Volumes 24-27 remain unindexed, and these are transcriptions rather than original document images, which remain housed in Hartford.
I am seeking any information at all regarding Thomas Carnes, 1663-1735, who, according to family story, was once proprietor of the Hew Haven Ferry Tavern. He was supposed to have immigrated from Ireland in 1680 and married Mary Walker Brown, 1664-1704 , daughter of John Brown and Mary Walker. They apparently had 10 children.
