In 1633 the first English
settlers created a colony at Windsor, and in 1635 settlers from
Massachusetts founded the Saybrook Colony. By 1636 the region was
drawing more and more people to the area, and the Connecticut Colony at
Hartford was founded, followed by the New Haven Colony in 1638. One of
the first constitutions in North America was drafted in 1639 - the
"Fundamental Orders" - giving the state it's current nickname, the
Constitution State. In 1662 the three major colonies were merged under a
royal charter, creating a Crown Colony.
The state is now the
29th most populous state in the United States, though due to it's small
size it is currently the 4th most densely populated state in the
country. |

All reproduction prints are printed as "museum quality",
using advanced ink formulas and durable museum quality paper. The
reproduction prints reflect the state of repair of the original conserved
document. Stains and imperfections reflected in the original map
at the time it was collected for conservation are left un-retouched, as
they reflect the character and charm of the vintage original. Some major imperfections, such as dark fold lines have been removed when
possible. Maps are printed as ordered and are not returnable unless
received damaged. |
