My ancestor George Pardee came to New Haven in 1644, escaping Taunton England having been wounded in the civil war. He eventually was one of the first headmasters of the Hopkins Grammar School. The Pardee name is still in town. Thank you for screening this.
@@beachside1Not my direct line. The first Pardee who came to New Haven had two sons who continued the line:Joseph, who moved to West Haven, from which my direct line moved to Orange, and George, who moved to East Haven, whose descendants are the source of many places that today bear the Pardee name. A lot of history indeed!
Where I was Born and Raised I left in 1994 I only miss 🍕 Pizza House on Howe st I grew up on Edgewood Ave went to Troup middle school and Hillhouse I thank you for sharing the History
I believe it was Rev. HENRY WHITFIELD, who led the company over from England, my 10th great grandfather John Parmelee, Parmelan, Parmley ( Various spellings), was with rev. WHITFIELD.
Why was the Independent colony of New Haven abolished? The three main roads tell you, Whalley, goffe and Dixwell. All three men had signed the death warrant of King Charles the first of England. My pods on youtube and facebook explain they are titlled after my book on the subject In the Name of the Crown. Amazon and kindle.
Yes, the story of Whalley, Goffe, and Dixwell is great history, although there are various versions. But it included them hiding out in a cave in West Rock, known now as the Three Judges Cave. When I was in Hillhouse High School in the 1950s, my friends and I would eat at the Three Judges Restaurant. Again thank you for screening, and opening conversations among your viewers.
We Removed Colombus from Wooster Square but who were the Indigenous People who were driven out? and no talk of the total destruction of the ethnic neighborhoods and Churches during the reign of Richard C Lee as mayor an the purge of Yale university on all these areas. I remember some a a child and the garment district fire but there are no stories.

Wooster Square was never a slum, before the hipsters moved in it was Italian working class, the people who make the Apizz you love so much .
YUP, NEVER A SLUM- SALLY AND PEPES!!
Gorgeous pizza
Sadly, most of fair Haven which was Irish and Italian neighborhoods have become more of a slum
