<br>'''Compact Disc.''' Jacquelyn Ladd Ricker’s The Ricker Compilation of Vital Records of Early Connecticut, CD-ROM (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 2006), claims to have abstracted not only Barbour’s 137 town volumes and the books from which the rest of the slips identified as “public records” in the Barbour Index were abstracted, but also many other early Connecticut birth, baptism, marriage, death, and burial record compilations which had been published in The Connecticut Nutmegger. The 1.2 million Connecticut vital records on this CD are not easily searchable and seem to contain many errors, including imprecise identification of their sources.<ref name=":1">Linda MacLachlan, Finding Early Connecticut Vital Records: The Barbour Index and Beyond (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co,. 2019) 2."</ref> | <br>'''Compact Disc.'''

Note: The Barbour Collection omits hundreds of vital records books, manuscripts and articles, which are cited in Linda MacLachlan's Finding Early Connecticut Vital Records: The Barbour Index and Beyond (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co,. 2019). This book is a bibliography of where early Connecticut vital records for 149 towns may be found today, including six not in the Barbour Collection at all: Cromwell, Easton, New Britain, New Fairfield, Seymour and Trumbull. | Note: The Barbour Collection omits hundreds of vital records books, manuscripts and articles, which are cited in Linda MacLachlan's [https://www.worldcat.org/title/finding-early-connecticut-vital-records-the-barbour-index-and-beyond/oclc/1128198702&referer=brief_results Finding Early Connecticut Vital Records: The Barbour Index and Beyond] (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co,. 2019).
