For Thanksgiving & Christmas
Holiday Goodies

   Whether you're new to the Middletown area--or not, you might wish you had a little extra help in the kitchen as holidays approach. 

If so, you can hardly do better for special dishes, desserts, and fruit than Lyman's Orchard Store and Gotta's Store, which, in addition to our many local grocery stories and supermarkets, help many families fill in gaps on their menu during the holidays. 

Lyman Orchard Store is on Route 157, in MIddlefield. 

Gotta's Store is across the River, on Route 17 in South Glastonbury.
Links are below. Lyman can deliver, Don't know about Gotta's.
Check them out. Every little bit helps.

Kiss Squinting Goodbye!

A Feature for the Farsighted 
(who can't see near) 
in the Chrome Browser 

If you're a reader who sees the online printed word getting smaller every year--and in case you haven't discovered it yet, the Chrome browser has a built-in feature for the Farsighted.

On the Chrome webpage, click on the three dots at upper right & you'll see a drop-down picklist. Toward the bottom of the picklist, click on "More Tools" to display a Popout. 

On the Popout, click Reading Mode just up from the bottom of the list and your reading matter will instantly transform into larger, darker, & more readable paragraphs. You'll never need to squint again!

This is a reprise of Al's popular New England Regional Genealogical Conference (NERGC) presentation for those of you who were unable to make it to New Hampshire earlier this month.

Not everything of genealogical value has been digitized. Join Al as he discusses some Connecticut genealogy resources that have stood the test of time and are sometimes overlooked.

Please register by 4:00 PM Friday, November 21 . The invite will be sent out on that Friday.

Godfrey Premium members can register for free at the following email: zoomregistration@godfrey.org  If you are not a Godfrey Premium member and want to attend the presentation, you can pay $10 via PayPal (https://www.paypal.com/us/home) with the payment sent to Godfrey Memorial Library.  Then register using the above email.

Note:  We've had a few requests lately to try a hybrid (Zoom and in-person) Genealogy Club, and we're going to give it a try with our November meeting.  So locals, come and join us!
