Funded with grants from the Connecticut Humanities Council and private donations.

In the first decades after winning independence from Great Britain, Americans sought to describe their new republic both to themselves and to others. To gather information for that effort, the newly chartered Connecticut Academy of Arts and Sciences sent a questionnaire to the state's 107 towns in 1800.

   Here are the town's responses and interpretations of them by present-day essayists.
