This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Waterbury and the Naugatuck Valley, Connecticut, Vol. 2: Illustrated A modern philosopher has written: Not the good that comes to us, but the good that comes to the world through us is the measure of our success, and judged by this standard the name of Scovill has become a synonym of the term success, not only in its meaning of prosperity, but also in the good that comes to the world, for the establishment and pro motion of the Scovill interests have practically meant Waterbury's industrial history, its growth and its prosperity, with all the consequent development that comes through the demands of an advancing civilization. The record of the family constitutes a most important chapter in Connecticut's history. From a very early epoch in the annals of the colonies frequent mention of the Scovill family is made, the name being originally spelled with one 1. One of the first settlers of Waterbury was Sergeant John Scovil, the son of John Scovil, of Haddam. In 1693 he wedded Hannah Richards, a daughter of Obediah Richards, and became one of vvaterbury's first residents. His son, Lieutenant William Scovil, was born in England in 1703 and in 1729 wedded Hannah Richards, a daughter of John Richards. They were the parents of the Rev. James Scovil, who was born January 27, 1732 or 1733 and in 1762 married Amy Nichols, a daughter of Captain George Nichols. It was in the year 1757 that James Scovil was graduated from Yale College and two years afterward he became the rector of the Episcopal church in the mission field of Waterbury, Northbury, and what is now Bristol, Connecticut, becoming the first resident rector in Waterbury. He devoted nearly thirty years to work in that pastoral field and in 1788 accepted the pastorate of the church at Kingston, New Brunswick, where he passed away December 19, 1808, in the fiftieth year of his ministry. James Scovil, son of the Rev. James Scovil, was born in Waterbury, March 19, 1764, and when after the Revolutionary war the family removed to New Brunswick he was the only one of the children who remained in Waterbury. He became a large land holder and a very prominent and influential resident of his town, where he filled the office of justice and was always known as Esquire Scovil. While the War of 1812 was in progress he established a woolen mill 011 East Main street in Waterbury at a place known as the old-leather factory site and in the undertaking was associated with several others. With the declaration of peace the markets were opened to foreign goods and domestic manufacturers could not compete with foreign trade, so that the owners of the woolen factory retired from the business with considerable loss. He resided at the old family residence at the corner of North and East Main streets, his homestead including the ground now occupied by the Irving block and a neighboring building from Phoenix alley on East Main street to the Dime Savings Bank on North Main street. Anderson's History speaks. Of him as a man of fine presence and much dignity of manner and character. He married Alathea Lamson, a daughter of Mitchell Lamson, a merchant of vvoodbury, the wedding being celebrated November 16, 1788.

Field, of Waterbury, who had been secretary and treasurer since the company began business, was elected president; Mr. Hotchkiss becoming vice president and E. W. Rutherford secretary. The company's plant on Brown Street has been greatly extended, additions having been made nearly every year of its existence.

THE PLATT BROTHERS & COMPANY Among the long-established manufacturing enterprises of Waterbury is that of the Platt Brothers & Company, which, was incorporated in 1876, but was founded on the first of April, 1847. Even before that date the business had its inception, having been established by Alfred Platt, grandfather of Lewis A. Platt, who is now president of the concern. It continued the manufacture of buttons until 1910, when that branch of the business was taken over by a newly organized company under the name of the Patent Button Company, capital $48,000, of which Lewis A. Platt, however, remains the treasurer. The original firm of A. Platt & Co. was afterward reorganized under the name of A.

Book The Town and City of Waterbury  Connecticut  from the Aboriginal Period to the Year Eighteen Hundred and Ninety Five  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Town and City of Waterbury Connecticut from the Aboriginal Period to the Year Eighteen Hundred and Ninety Five Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Joseph Anderson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06 with total page 910 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Town and City of Waterbury, Connecticut, From the Aboriginal Period to the Year Eighteen Hundred and Ninety-Five, Vol. 1 The narrative of the colonial and revolutionary periods is the result of an independent study by Miss Prichard of the original sources, including documents that have come to light since Dr. Bronson's History was written. This study was pursued with but little reference to Bronson, although the value of his labors was known from the beginning. It ought to be understood, however, that it was not the purpose of the author or the editor to super sede the earlier work; on the contrary, certain subjects to which Bronson devoted special attention are in this History passed over lightly for that reason. It may be added that Dr. Bronson, to the hour of his death, was deeply interested in the present enterprise.
