Kuvaus

During the early 1700s, Brookfield was first colonized in an area occupied by the Pootatuck Indians. Hat, shear, and comb factories arose along the Still River, enticing settlers, who built farms, churches, and inns. In 1752, land was taken from New Milford, Newtown, and Danbury to form the Parish of Newbury. By 1788, the town was incorporated as Brookfield in honor of the area's first ordained pastor, Rev. Thomas Brooks. The town quickly outgrew its horse-and-buggy paths and one-room schoolhouses. In 1927, Candlewood Lake was born out of area farmland, flooded to form the largest man-made lake in Connecticut. Brookfield depicts the settlement of the area and highlights notable natives, including Lucia Ruggles Holman, the first American woman to circumnavigate the globe, and Sarah Jane Campbell, P.T. Barnum's famous fat lady.
