Excerpt from Historical Address
The history of the town of Canton contains little that is strange or startling, or greatly unlike the history of many other towns, but it is a history all our own; and gathered here, as we are, to celebrate the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Declaration of In dependence, a most notable event in our general history, it is a fitting time to glance backward over that series of local events which has resulted in placing our homes and ourselves where they and we are to-day.
The town of Canton is an outgrowth from the town of Simsbury, and is identical therewith in history till the year A. D. 1806; the town of Simsbury is an outgrowth from the original settlement of the town of Windsor and at this writing the same family names prevail, to a great extent, in all three of these towns.
A proportion of the inhabitants of this town, and a still larger proportion of the inhabitants of the towns of Simsbury and Windsor, can trace their ancestry to a band of English families which, under the pastoral charge of Rev. Mr. Warham, sailed from the mother country in A. D. 1630. They landed at Boston, remained at what is now Dorchester for five years, and, in the fall of 1635 and spring of 1636, journeyed through a hundred miles of primeval forest to the banks of the Connecticut river, and settled at Windsor.
