The New Haven Journal-Courier, originally published as The Connecticut Journal, and New-Haven Post-Boy, later published as The Connecticut Journal, the Connecticut Herald, the Morning Journal and Courier, The Journal-Courier, and several other names, was a newspaper published in New Haven, Connecticut from 1767 to 1835 by Thomas and Samuel Green[1] as well as others.[2][3][4] The publishers also printed pamphlets including sermons and the "criminal confession" written by David Daggett about Joseph Mountain, an African American man executed in New Haven before a crowd of thousands of spectators. It was sold amongst the crowd and was a popular and influential treatise.

Thomas Green published several of Connecticut's earliest newspapers.[5]

In 1875, prominent Republican businessman John Bennett Carrington, Sr. acquired the paper.[6] As the paper's editor, Carrington sought to create a "family paper" that was "conservative in tone", but not "unduly partisan".[6] By the 1880s, the paper was considered to be aligned with the Republican Party.[7] During this time, the paper was publishing under the Journal and Courier title for its daily edition, and the Connecticut Herald and Journal title for its weekly edition.[7][8]

In 1987 the paper was absorbed by the New Haven Register.[9]
