About Brooklyn, Connecticut
Brooklyn is a town of 8,450 people in Windham County, with the Quinebaug River, once called the Brook Line, along its eastern edge. The Wabaquasset held this land before English families came in the late 1600s, and it began as Mortlake, a manor where Sir John Blackwell planned a colony that never took shape. Governor Jonathan Belcher of Massachusetts bought it from Blackwell's son in 1713, and the tract stayed mostly wild for nearly thirty years.
When settlers asked to become a town in 1728, the upper house refused, because no one wanted to cross a man as powerful as Belcher. The church society went by Mortlake until 1754, when it took the name Brooklyn. In May 1786 Brooklyn finally became a town of its own, made from parts of Canterbury and Pomfret, and its first town meeting was set for June 22.
“this Brooklyn tavern became one of the most noted rendezvous in eastern Connecticut.”
- Putnam's plough in the fieldIsrael Putnam bought 500 acres from Belcher in 1739, raised cattle and sheep, and built the oldest part of his farmhouse on today's Spaulding Road about 1750. In 1767 he moved to the Green and opened a tavern there. When news of Lexington arrived in 1775, he walked away from his plough mid-furrow and set out for Boston still in his work clothes. Putnam Farm joined the National Register in 1982.
- A statue over his gravePutnam died in Brooklyn in 1790 and was laid in an above-ground tomb in the South Cemetery. So many visitors came to the tomb that his remains were eventually taken out of it. The state put up a statue of the general on horseback in 1888, sealing his remains inside its foundation.
- County seat in 1820The Assembly offered in 1819 to give Brooklyn the Windham County courts if the town paid for a court house and jail. Building them cost $6,000, toward which Brooklyn promised $2,500. After their acceptance on July 26, 1820, Brooklyn gained a newspaper, a fire insurance company and, in 1822, the county's first bank. Prudence Crandall stood trial here in 1833, and her night in a condemned murderer's cell earned her sympathy. By 1874 railroad towns drew trade away.
- Malbone's church of 1771When the Congregationalists planned a new meetinghouse, Godfrey Malbone hurried to build an Anglican church first, and he finished Trinity Church in April 1771. It is the oldest surviving Anglican church building in Connecticut and still holds its original box pews, pulpit and reading desk. Trinity Church joined the National Register in 1970.
- The first woman Unitarian ministerThe meetinghouse on the Green went up between 1771 and 1774 and is one of the few church buildings in the state older than the Revolution. Samuel J. May, who stood by Prudence Crandall, preached there, and in 1871 its society ordained Rev. Celia Burleigh, the first woman to become a Unitarian minister. After the 1938 hurricane the building got a new steeple. The Unitarian Meetinghouse joined the National Register in 1972.
