    Daniel,

    Thanks so much for all the posts, I know it is time consuming. Must be a labor of love, keep on going.

    Where do you start to collect history on a particular property? My spouse and I own a house at 30 short Beach Road Branford CT which was part of the Plant Family Farm – but other than date constructed (1850) our land records are sketchy on the actual occupants, architect and builder.

    Thanks

    Robert-Thank you!

    Bobby- Thanks! I try to post about buildings where there is information available, usually because it’s listed in the National Register of Historic Places, is in a historic district, is cataloged in a town’s historic resources inventory survey, or is mentioned in a book on local history.

    Do have any historical homes in Farmington, Unionville or Kensington/Berlin CT for the Langdon family. Thanks

    Gwen, Thomas and Gloria: Thank You!

    Kenneth: I don’t have any Langdon Houses in those towns, although I have featured two that are in the town of Plymouth.

    Congratulations on this milestone. I have enjoyed the buildings you have posted for years now, and have learned a lot in the process. I am catching up on some of your videos, which are all meticulously researched. Thank you for the tremendous effort you have put into this project–you have really built up something of importance.

    Congratulations, Dan! Thank you very much for providing such a fascinating, informative CT resource. I always consult your excellent site whenever I’m heading out and about around our state (which is often), and have gained a much greater appreciation for the beautiful, diverse architecture and the endlessly intriguing history of CT. Very best wishes for continued success in the years to come.
    Sincere regards,
