Excerpt from Extracts From the Records of Colchester: With Some Transcripts From the Recording of Michaell Taintor, of "Brainford," Conn
The lands, of little value comparatively, at the beginning of the settlement, gradually increased in value as the population and de mand for land increased: and those of the proprietors and their descendants and heirs, who retained their rights in the divisions of lands, became substantially wealthy and prosperous. Colchester was a highly popular settlement, and the early planters were a supe rior set of men, belonging, as they did, to many of the first families in New England: and it early attracted a brilliant array of names and genius from various parts of the country. Its location was desirable, being near Hartford, Middletown, Norwich and New London.
