A Brief History of the Town of Norfolk From 1738 to 1844 (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from A Brief History of the Town of Norfolk From 1738 to 1844 The unconveyed lands in the colony of Connecticut, were claimed by a company instituted in the fourteenth year of the reign of Charles II., and incorporated by the name of the governor and company, and while emigrants were effecting a settlement of several towns in the colony already conveyed and incorporated. On the 11th of October, 1722, there arose an unhappy controversy between the legislature and the towns of Hartford and Windsor, originating from the following circumstances. In the troublous times of Sir Edmund Andrus administration, who attempted to grasp and enrich himself and his minions, by the sale of the lands in the colony hitherto unconveyed, the legislature, it seems, had, in a hasty manner, conveyed to the towns of Hartford and Windsor, the section of the colony described in the annexed grant, dated January 26th, 1686, in the words following. "This court grants to the plantations of Hartford and Windsor, those lands on the north of Woodbury and Mattatuck, and on the west of Farmington and Simsbury, to the Massachusetts line north, to run west to Housatonic or Stratford river, provided it be not, or part of it, formerly granted to any particular person, to make a plantation or village."
