CTNow.com New general consul of Peru settles in, and Hartford is glad to have him: "Census numbers say there are about 1,200 [Peruvians] in Hartford, 6,000 in Connecticut, but Canal and others says the numbers are easily triple that. Not everyone who arrives comes forward right away, they say. Their estimate: about 5,000 in Hartford, 20,000 in Connecticut." Hartford gets a consul. I may have taught José Benzaquen when I was at the Diplomatic Academy.
