Connecticut Obituaries
To begin, add a obituaries record or view a list of locations and resources for Connecticut obituaries.
Connecticut may be a small state, but it has a dense population and is a surprising destination for people to retire, considering the relatively high cost of living and the cold winters. If you are searching for Connecticut obituaries, consider starting your search with JewishGen. They have online, searchable listings from as far back as 1946 and are putting up older listings all the time.
The Norwalk Hour newspaper also has a comprehensive database online that you can check for no charge. They feature listings from 1983 onwards. If you are searching for listings for the Ridgefield area, the local public library has a website that features a searchable database with listings from the Ridgefield Press Newspaper. The Wilton Library has even more listings online that you can search. Connecticut obituary records from 1937 to 2005 can be found here for the entire Wilton region.
Currently, these are the main online databases, but smaller ones are popping up all over the state and major newspapers in cities like Hartford and Stamford are due to be online in no time. It is important that you start with the county where the person you are looking for lived or where they were when they passed away.
