Synopsis

Trace a storied New England family and the town they shaped.

This nonfiction account follows the Storrs family through generations, blending local history with vivid memories of Mansfield, Connecticut. Rich with detail, it pairs family milestones with the rise of mills, schools, and community life in a changing era.

Two sections of the book offer a geographic and personal portrait: a community’s growth beside early industry, and a lineage that ties ordinary days to enduring legacies. Readers will encounter descendants, place names, and life events that illuminate how one family helped shape a town.
  • Discover how shifts from home crafts to factory work changed daily life and local traditions.
  • Meet notable figures, from early settlers to the founders of the Storrs Agricultural School.
  • Learn about local landmarks, cemeteries, and the evolving fabric of Mansfield.
  • Read intimate biographical sketches that highlight character, values, and community ties.
Ideal for readers of local history, genealogical research, and anyone curious about how families and towns intertwine over time.
