SUMMARY:Factory to Frontline: Meriden in the Civil War
DESCRIPTION:From factory floors to training camps\, discover how Meriden workers\, families\, and soldiers experienced the war—at home and on the frontline.  During the Civil War era\, the city of Meriden emerged as an important center of  industry\, demonstrating how northern manufacturing supported the Union war effort. Known especially for its silver and metalworking factories\, Meriden produced a wide range of goods\, including military equipment\, for the war effort. \nParker Brothers was a major firearms manufacturer in Meriden during the Civil War era\, producing rifles and other weapons for Union forces. Founded by brothers Charles\, Edmund\, and Wilbur Parker\, the company became known for its precision engineering and high-quality gunmaking techniques. After the war\, Parker shifted its focus toward sporting firearms\, especially the famous Parker shotgun\, which became one of the most respected American double-barreled shotguns of the late 19th century. \nRegister HERE.

SUMMARY:Andrews Homestead Open Today
DESCRIPTION:The Andrews Homestead is a living window into Meriden’s past\, inviting visitors to explore a historic home that traces the community’s story from pre-European Indigenous life through the transformations of the 20th century. Through its featured tour\, “Wampum to War Bonds\,” the site connects early Native trade traditions and colonial settlement with Meriden’s industrial growth and its contributions during times of national conflict\, including the world wars. Carefully preserved rooms\, artifacts\, and narratives bring to life the everyday experiences of those who lived and worked in the area\, offering a continuous thread of history that shows how a small Connecticut town evolved alongside the nation itself.   The tour\, Wampum to War Bonds\, is at 11:30 and 1:00. . Registration required.  Sign up HERE

SUMMARY:Liberty in the Hanging Hills:  Meriden and the Revolution
DESCRIPTION:This lecture explores how a small but strategically situated New England community became intertwined with the broader struggle for American independence. Nestled among the rugged Hanging Hills\, Meriden’s landscape shaped both its economy and its role in the Revolutionary War\, from supplying goods and manpower to serving as a corridor for communication and movement. The lecture highlights the lives of local patriots\, the tensions between loyalists and revolutionaries\, and the ways ordinary residents experienced the upheaval of war. By blending regional geography with personal stories\, it reveals how the ideals of liberty took root not only in major cities but also in quieter towns whose contributions were vital to the revolutionary cause.  Reserve your seat HERE.
