About Newington, Connecticut
Newington is a town of 30,536 people in Hartford County, on the southern edge of Hartford. For about 150 years it was the western farm country of Wethersfield, a valley west of Cedar Mountain that settlers called Pipe-stave Swamp for the barrel staves they split there and Cow Plain for its grazing land. In 1677 Wethersfield offered four men twenty acres apiece to build a sawmill, and by 1680 the mill at the foot of the pond was running.
A Wethersfield town meeting allowed the western farmers a parish of their own in 1712, and in 1721 the General Assembly named it Newington. Town business still meant a trip over Cedar Mountain. When Wethersfield would not spend money improving the roads that led to the railroad, the parish asked to split off. The act passed with no vote against it, and on July 10, 1871, Governor Jewell signed it. The new town had 871 people and about 130 farms.
“Nearly every house is still a home, and the oldest dwelling in Newington still shelters family life, as it has for almost two hundred years.”
- The minister Yale tookThe parish organized its church on October 3, 1722, with Rev. Elisha Williams as minister. The Yale trustees chose him as rector in 1725, and he left for the college in 1726. The colony paid Newington 100 pounds for its loss and excused the parish from country taxes for several years. Rev. Joab Brace later preached for fifty years, from January 16, 1805, to January 16, 1855, as membership rose from fifty-one to one hundred and seventy.
- The man who named the townThe Willard family held land here from 1670, and the Willard Homestead, a central-chimney house, went up on it about 1730. Josiah Willard grew up in the house, served as Newington's first parish clerk and is credited with choosing the town's name. The homestead joined the National Register in 1986.
- A house rolled to safetyEnoch Kelsey, a farmer and tinsmith, and his son David built the house around 1799, close to the New Britain line. A highway project was about to claim it in 1979 when Newington Historical Society volunteers discovered rare freehand painting on its walls. They raised money to rescue it, and over November 15 and 16, 1979, the house traveled to Main Street. It opened as a museum and joined the National Register in 1982.
- W1AW, dedicated in 1938In 1914 Hiram Percy Maxim of West Hartford pressed the Radio Club of Hartford to bring amateur operators together, and their league spread across the country. Maxim died in 1936, and the league honored him with a memorial station carrying his old call sign, W1AW, on farmland the league bought from Elsie Starr. The station's dedication came on September 2, 1938, and the league put up its headquarters next to it in 1963.
- Mill Pond FallsThe 16-foot falls at Mill Pond take their name from a sawmill built there in 1860, and they appear on the town seal. They are billed as the country's smallest natural waterfall. A footbridge carries the walking path over them, and every September since 2000 the town has held its Waterfall Festival in their honor.
