This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Connecticut Historical Society, Vol. 9 The majority of the rolls printed in this volume and of those which will appear in the succeeding volume are from these Adams Papers in the State Library. In addition there are rolls from the series lettered War, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, among the bound volumes of archives in the State Library, a number from the archives of the Connecticut Historical Society, a few from private sources, and several from the New York Historical Society's Collections for 1891. Items have also been gleaned from a volume of army accounts 1755 - 1758 in the Comptroller's Office, from the printed series of the Records-of the Colony of Connecticut, and from the file of the Connecticut Gazette in the Yale University Library. The greater part of the copy for this volume was prepared by the editor, and the proof of every roll has been read by him with the original manuscript. The index cards, which were written by Miss Alice M. Gay of Hartford, were also all compared by him with the printed sheets before they were printed. The names and official positions of general, regimental, and company officers, gathered from scattered sources, have been ar ranged for convenience at the beginning of each campaign, regi ment, and company. So far as could be ascertained, the residence of each officer is given. Where the residence does not appear in the records but has been added by the editor, it is enclosed in brackets. In a number of instances where there were two or more rolls of the same company covering the same period, only one has been printed in full and a reference made to the others. This work does not profess to be more than a list of men who served as soldiers, with an account of their service and such further records as will aid in identifying them. Consequently much has been omitted in the printing of these rolls which has appeared irrelevant to the object in view. It has seemed outside the scope of the work to give the amount of bounty received, the sum per month or the total amount of pay received, the number of months and days in service when dates of both enlistment and discharge are given, and numerous similar items. As the location of the manuscript of each roll is given, the curious can find such items as occur by reference to the originals.

The originals of the greater part of the letters and documents here printed are in the archives of this Society; some are among the Connecticut State Archives preserved in the State Library; a number are among the Belknap and the Trumbull Papers preserved by the Massachusetts Historical Society, and a few are among the Chalmers Papers preserved in the New York Public Library (Lenox foundation). Such of the manuscripts as are in this Society's archives are, with a few exceptions, contained in the series of five folio volumes lettered "J. Law Papers."

This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Connecticut Historical Society, 1903, Vol. 9 This volume Of Rolls is published under the provisions of a recent Special Act Of the General Assembly making an annual appropriation of one thousand dollars to the Connecticut Historical Society; one of the purposes specifically named in this act being to publish its rolls of soldiers in the revolutionary and colonial wars, not heretofore printed. Another provision is that the Society shall deposit in the State Library three hundred copies of each catalogue, report, or other work published under this act, to be disposed of by the State Librarian. This is the second important work issued under the provisions of this act. At a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Society held on the twentieth of last May it was Voted that a volume of Rolls of Connecticut Men who served in the French and Indian War 1755 1762 be prepared and published, and the librarian as editor of the Society's publications was directed to undertake the work without delay. This volume is the result of that vote. It was anticipated that all of the rolls of the Connecticut men in that war could be published in one volume, but as the printing progressed it was found necessary, in order to make a volume Of convenient size and to conform to the size of the previous volumes of the series, to divide the work into two volumes. It is expected that the second volume will be issued without delay. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Connecticut Historical Society, Vol. 14 The English settlement of Hartford, Conn., was made by settlers from "the New Towne," now Cambridge, Mass. As early as 1633 the region was visited by a few adventurers and traders from the Bay. In 1635 a settlement was begun at "Newtowne," the name being changed to Hartford two years later. The great exodus hither was in the spring of 1636, when the settlement was firmly established by the coming of the. Rev. Thomas Hooker and his party. About that time the lands were purchased by the settlers from the Indians. A confirmatory deed given in 1670, the original deed having been lost, states that it was given to "Mr. Samuel Stone and Mr. William Goodwin, in the behalf of the present proprietors and owners of the lands belonging to the township of Hartford." The proportional ownership of these lands, as stated at a meeting of the Proprietors in February 1671/2, was "according to the rate for diffusion of lands agreed upon entered In the Town book dated 3 Jan 1639" [i.e. 1639/40], "according to which proportion they payed for the purchase of the Sayd lands." The proportions of these Proprietors varied from one hundred sixty acres for John Haynes down to six for William Pratt and others. In addition to these were a number of settlers who were "Granted lotts to have onely at The Townes Courtesie," sometimes spoken of as proprietors by courtesy, whose proportions were from six to three acres each. The township was divided into two parts by the "riveret" which flowed eastward and emptied into the Connecticut river.

Hoadley in his early life followed mercantile pursuits. His later years were devoted to the home and to historical and antiquarian studies. He became a member of the Connecticut Historical Society on February 5, 1901, and later was elected a member for life. He had an exceeding fondness for the numerous and varied literary and antiquarian treasures that had been gathered by both his brother Charles and himself, and took great pleasure in exhibiting and explain ing these to his friends in the new home which he erected in his later life in West Hartford near the Hartford boundary line.
