Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of New Haven, Illinois This book was written as a project in teaching Jimmie, who, as many of you well know, is paralyzed, both hands and both feet, and has been for about ten years. It was entirely his idea, but as we worked it grew much like the proverbial snowball. Through this project we have learned something of reading, writing, spelling, language composition, history and geography and their relation to everyday life in his home town. Writing is much more of a task for Jimmie than many of you may realize and his perseverance and good spirit are highly commendable. Many changes have taken place here since the good old days and every one will agree it is a much better place to live now than it was then. We appreciate your advice, encouragement and help.

From his boyhood he delighted in the reminiscences of those who had taken part in stirring scenes of old New Haven. Dr. Joseph Darling (yale 1777) and Captain Nathan Beers (born in 17 53) were two of his chief sources of information. So the torch is passed on from genera tion to generation and it is hoped that some of the young people now growing up, may have sufficient.

Download or read book Chronicles of New Haven Green written by Henry T. Blake and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chronicles of New Haven Green: From 1638 to 1862 a Series of Papers Read Before the New, Haven Colony Historical Society The following papers were read before the New Haven Colony Historical Society at different times between 1894 and 1898 and are published after being carefully revised and in many parts re-written. Acknowledgment is due to friends who have aided the writer, and especially to Prof. Franklin B.Dexter, Mr. Horace Day and Mr. Thomas R. Trowbridge. The maps of the Green contained in this volume are reproduced for this work from well known maps of New Haven of the periods indicated. Browns map of 1724 was copied from the original by President Stiles at a later date. In it the meeting-house is incorrectly placed in the center of the square, and neither the then newly-built Grammar School near the jail, nor the older school-house then used for the English School, is shown, both of which appear in Wadsworth's map of twenty-five years later. Wadsworth's map of 1748 was made from actual surveys and is doubtless substantially correct. "President Stiles' map of New Haven in 1775" was drawn on a sheet of letter paper and was consequently too small to be entirely reliable. Curiously enough. President Stiles omits from it, as in Browns map, both the schoolhouses, though both were then still in existence and use. The Doolittle map of 1817 was engraved on copper by Amos Doolittle and first issued by him in 1817. In 1824 he again published it with the requisite alterations and the later date. The plan of the Green in this volume is copied from an imprint of 1817. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketches of New Haven When the forefathers marked out their famous nine squares, with that in the middle set apart as a public market-place, they fixed the center of the life of the city of Elms. The Green has been called the heart Of New Haven. In absence, the name calls up stirring memories on return, the sight of it stirs thrills of recognition. It is only a simple grassy square, surrounded and dotted by trees, divided by Temple street, crossed by many paths for the convenience of busy people; and enshrining three old churches. But the square has been there since Davenport and Eaton laid out the town in 1638; the trees have stood a hundred years; and around the churches are entwined the historic associations of the colony and the city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Colony of New Haven: To Its Absorption Into Connecticut Christian Englishmen who first brought the light of civilization to these shores will be interested in his work. He hopes that some whose ancestors came hither at a later period, and others who though born in foreign lands have chosen New Haven as their home, and learned to love it, will gladly acquaint them selves with the men by whose toil and heroism this goodly heritage was cut out of a wilderness. The fulness of the records, both of the town and of the colony of New Haven, makes it possible to present the first planters as, in large measure, the narrators of their own history. The author, preferring that they should speak for themselves, has made large extracts from their records and from other con temporary writings. The town records of New Haven for the first ten years are in print, and the manuscript records of the next sixteen years have been carefully read. The records of other towns within the colony, being less accessible to the author, have not been so thoroughly examined: they are, how ever, but meagre as compared with those of New Haven. Ralph D. Smith diligently searched those of Guilford, and Lambert those of Milford and their histories have been freely used.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the City of New Haven to the Present Time In October the planters of Quinnipiac welcomed an accession to their number. Ezekiel Rogers, a much respected nonconforming minister in York shire, having embarked at Hull, on the Humber, with a company who personally knew him and desired to enjoy his ministry, arrived in Boston late in the summer. Such representations were made to him by Davenport and Eaton, or their agents, that he engaged to come with his followers to Quinnipiac; and within eight weeks after his arri val in Massachusetts, a portion of his people came by water to the new settlement. The remainder of the company were expected to follow; but Rogers changed his mind and commenced a new settlement at Rowley, in Massachusetts. He sent a pinnace to bring back those of his people who had. Preceded him in his intended voyage; but some of them, refusing to return, became perma nent residents at Quinnipiac.

Download or read book New Haven In 1784 written by Franklin Bowditch Dexter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Haven in 1784: A Paper Read Before the New Haven Colony Historical Society, January 21, 1884 ON the evening of January 21, 1784, the President of Yale College wrote in his diary: This afternoon the Bill or Charter of the City of New Haven passed the Governor and Council, and completes the incorporation of the Mayor, four Aldermen and twenty Common Council. It is fitting to recall on this anniversary some characteristics of the New Haven of 1784. The town then covered the territory now occupied, not only by the present town, but also by West Haven, East Haven, North Haven, (the greater part of) Woodbridge, Ham den, and Bethany, in all an area of perhaps ten by thirteen miles, or from ten to twelve times as extensive as now. The inhabitants were estimated at souls; of whom less than almost any one of our wards to - day, were in that part which was chartered as a city. There are now within the town-limits of 17 84, by a more than tenfold increase, some inhabitants, while the city proper has multiplied more than twentyfold. In the settled part of the city (that is, the original nine squares, called the town-plat, and the south-eastward exten sion to the water, known as the new there were some 400 dwellings, mostly of wood, but a good number of brick, and one or two of stone. A nearly contemporaneous map (1775) on our walls shows that these dwellings lay almost wholly in the area bounded by Meadow, George, York, Grove,52 centennial OF new haven. Clive and Water streets, - the northern part of this area being by far the least fully inhabited. The streets were without regular lines of trees, without pavements, sidewalks, or names; but it was an awkward mode of designation by localities identified with personal names (as we still speak of Cutler Corner) and eight months after the charter was given, 21 of the principal streets (broadway, Chapel, Cherry, Church, College, Court, Crown, Elm, Fair, Fleet, George, Grove, High, Meadow, Olive, Orange, State, Temple, Union, Water, and York) received at a city meeting their present names. A few may have been already known by these titles; I dare not affirm it of any but College and Chapel streets, in both which cases the names were applied only to the immediate vicinity of the two college buildings which occa sioned them. A few more had been known by other names thus, the lower part of Church street was called Market street, from the market-house at the Open intersection of George and Church; State street is called on the map of 1775 Queen street, a designation which would seem to go back to distant Queen Anne part of George street was long known as Leather lane; York street was sometimes called West street, and Grove street North street.
