Land in colonial [[Connecticut|Connecticut]] was granted by the Connecticut General Court. Most of these grants were to proprietors. Proprietors' records are at the Connecticut State Archives or at the town halls. Later deeds, mortgages, releases, and other related documents were recorded by the town clerk and are at the town halls. Most are indexed by grantor and grantee. There is no statewide index. | Land in colonial [[Connecticut|Connecticut]] was granted by the Connecticut General Court. Most of these grants were to proprietors.
