| Publisher Description: Settled in 1704 and incorporated in 1708, Hebron is one of the oldest towns in Connecticut. Predominantly a farming community for generations, Hebron is also the home of many famous people. Hebron contains pictures of Governor John Peters, Dr. Charles Douglas, author Annie Hutchinson Foote, poet Susan Pendleton, the musically gifted Tennant family, Hebron's turn-of-the-century baseball team, and the Porters, the Hills, the Hildings, and many other lifelong Hebron residents. Hebron was also an industrial center with its own Ams-Sterling automobile, a busy train depot that connected travelers with New York and Boston, silk mills, and cottage industries. This book is the first pictorial history of Hebron ever published and contains many rare photographs from private collections. |
