Research Requests

Do you want to know where your family members lived, their occupations, and the community they helped build? Our extensive archives help people discover their families’ past in the New Haven area. Our archives are open for research.

If you’re not able to come in person, but you have a request, submit your question here! Members receive free research assistance, and non-members receive 15 free minutes. The research fee is $20 per hour thereafter for non-members. Payments may be made by credit card or checks payable to JHSGNH. If you have any questions, please contact us.
