Connie

Connie stood for Constance in many American records of the 1700s and 1800s.

Connie is a pet form of Constance. Nickname lists made for 18th and 19th century research, such as the one from the Connecticut State Library, pair Connie with Constance.

Do not take Connie and Constance for two different people too quickly. Compare ages, places and the names of relatives to confirm that both names belong to one woman.
