Riassunto

Excerpt from Two Discourses: Delivered March 8th and 15th, 1863, on the Completion of a Century and a Half From the Organization of the Congregational Church in West Hartford, Conn

It appears that in accordance with a vote of the proprietors of the undivided lands in the West Division of Hartford, passed J an. 30, 1672, there was laid out, by a committee, in November, 1674, a strip of these lands, next to Farmington bounds, a mile and a half wide east and west, and extending north and south across the town. This strip was divided into lots, running en tirely across it, each lot being a mile and a half in length, and varying in width from three to ninety-'one rods, according to the interest of each of the proprietors, of whom the names of sixty eight are recorded, with the number of the lot assigned to each. The eastern boundary of Farmington at that time was the road passing north and south by Mr. Edwin W. Belden's.

The Ecclesiastical Society of the West Division in Hartford was incorporated by act of the legislature, passed at its May ses sion in 1711, in accordance with a petition* - signed by twenty eight residents - presented at its session in October of the pre ceding year. The boundaries of the Society were, Windsor on the north, Farmington on the west, Wethersfield on the south, and on the east, the east ends of the West Division lots. It was afterward enlarged so as to include a part of F armington, and also extended considerably on the east. In 1806, its name was changed by the legislature to the Society of West Hartford.
