3 mars 1636 - Connecticut Colony founded
Description:
100 people led by Thomas Hooker and Massachusetts Bay Governor John Haynes gathered in Hartford (shown in maroon), the capital of the new Connecticut colony. Hooker was discontented that voting in Massachusetts required individuals to be freemen - that is, members of the church. It was later merged with Saybrook and New Haven.Ajouté au bande de temps:
