Join us to explore the architectural treasures of Coltsville and the Charter Oak neighborhoods. Discuss the impacts of industry and immigration on these neighborhoods in Hartford, including sites like the Colt Factory and its worker houses, the Church of the Good Shepherd and Parish House, the Capewell Nail Factory, and the Polish National Home.
Welcoming those with Hale and Hearty Roots! People who can trace their ancestry to the Coventry Hales and those interested in Hale family genealogy are invited to revisit the family homestead. Learn about the branches of the Hale family tree, understand genealogical resources available, connect with other descendants, and tour the home that Richard Hale and Elizabeth Strong Hale built for their family. After a communal lunch with music and games, visit the Coventry Town Green where the Hales mustered out for the American Revolution, the location of the church where Richard and John were deacons, the site of Elizabeth Hale Rose’s home, and the cemetery where Hale family members rest.
