Watertown, Connecticut was founded then the local Pauqasuck Indians sold this area of land to Thomas Judd and
thirty-five other proprietors in 1684. The first Ecclesiastical Society of
Westbury was formed in 1738, and in 1780 Westbury separated from Waterbury,
was named WATERTOWN and soon became the crossroads of a
number of early highways.
John Trumbull, poet of the Revolutionary War, lawyer and judge, was
born here in 1750. A council manager form of government in 1961 replaced more than one hundred and eighty years of the town meeting - selectman type. Watertown has been home of the Taft School, a college-preparatory institution since 1893. |
