Follow Friday: Connecticut Invents! (Museum of Connecticut History) blog

  Your ancestor was a Connecticut inventor?... There's a blog for that! Connecticut Invents!, run by the Museum of Connecticut History, profiles famous (and less-so) patents from Connecticut inventors. The latest posts include pop-up valentines and weather gear. The author adds a small background story and then a description of the patent. It's not regularly updated, but it's an interesting way to search through Connecticut history.
