New England CONNECTions will be held April 26-29, 2007, in Hartford, Connecticut. As the ninth New England Regional Genealogical Conference, it promises to build on NERGC’s tradition of excellence in providing genealogical lectures, seminars and workshops; the Ancestors Road Show; a Society Fair; as well as banquets and luncheons, for new and established genealogists alike, at minimal cost.

In keeping with the Conference theme, Patricia Law Hatcher, Cyndi Howells, Hank Jones, and over 45 other speakers will help genealogists “connect” to:
~ Ancestors who immigrated to and migrated out of New England (including settlement and migration patterns)
~ The wealth of information available in New England’s archives, libraries, and historical societies
~ Specific types of source materials (church, cemetery, vital, and military records; newspapers; city directories)
~ Advances in genealogical technology

In addition, over 45 national, regional, and society-sponsored speakers are on the program to bring you the very best in genealogy today. The Hartford conference program has over 45 speakers, 9 tracks, 75 lectures and workshops, lunch and dinner events, plus several additional offerings like Librarian's Day, the Ancestors Roadshow, Special Interest Groups, Society Fair, and the Exhibit Hall. Complete program and brochure is here: http://www.nergc.org/2007/program2007.htm

The conference takes place at the new Connecticut Convention Center, located at 100 Columbus Boulevard. Some events will also take place in meeting rooms at the interconnected Hartford Marriott Downtown, the official conference hotel, at 200 Columbus Boulevard.

Beyond the conference itself, Hartford is a genealogical and historical haven, home of the Connecticut State Library and Connecticut Historical Society Museum and historic sites such as the homes of Mark Twain and Harriet Beecher Stowe. The Godfrey Library in Middletown and Connecticut Society of Genealogists library in East Hartford are not far away.

It's a genealogy event you won't want to miss!
