DOWNLOAD EBOOKWinchester and Winsted once blossomed with commerce. From cheeses that were sold to the most exclusive restaurants in major cities to tourism that proclaimed "the lake's the thing," the towns thrived. The production of clocks, clothing, knives and gold- and silver-plated coffin trimmings helped establish the region's prominence. Famous names like Rockwell, Beardsley, Boyd, Gilbert and Strong highlight the town's history, not only due to their business acumen but also because of their philanthropy. Colonel Samuel B. Horne, who earned the Medal of Honor in the Civil War, along with noteworthy journalists and artists all made their home here. And then, in 1955, disaster struck. Join local historian and author Virginia Shultz-Charette as she recounts the town's development and how the great flood changed everything.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Annals and Family Records of Winchester, Conn: With Exercises of the Centennial Celebration, on the 16th and 17th Days of August, 1871 As early as 1856, the compiler of these Annals conceived the plan of collecting materials for a history of his native town, and its early settlers° His life-long residence, reaching back to 1799, and the custody of its re cords during no inconsiderable portion of the last fifty years, made him more familiar than most living men, with its documentary history and its traditions. Frequent calls by descendants of Old Winchester families, and by genealogists, for information derivable from the town records, im pressed him with the belief that a compilation of historical events and family records, however imperfect, would be received with favor alike by citizens Of the town and descendants of emigrating families.
