SUMMARY:CAS - “Leaving Connecticut\, Shaping America” with Walter Woodward
DESCRIPTION:Leaving Connecticut\, Shaping America” with Walter Woodward \nSaturday\, May 9\, 2026\, 1:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. \nNetworking at 12:30 pm \nHybrid Event via Zoom and in person at the Fairfield Museum & History Center. \nBetween 1780 and 1830\, tens of thousands of Connecticans left our state to “begin the world anew” in places like Pennsylvania\, Vermont\, western New York\, and especially\, the Connecticut Reserve of what is now Ohio. In the process\, they took the culture of their home state with them\, and gave the nation a strong and indelible Connecticut character. \nIn this fast-paced and copiously-illustrated talk\, Walt Woodward discusses the reasons behind Connecticut’s massive outmigration\, the distinctive attributes of the people who chose to leave\, and the very serious concerns their removal raised for those they left behind. \nGiven the very serious concerns state leaders have today over the outmigration of Connecticut’s younger generations\, this is a timely topic that will leave you with much to talk about. \nWalter Woodward\, Ph.D.\, was Connecticut’s State Historian and a member of the History Department at the University of Connecticut from 2004 to 2022. Although retired\, he continues to keep Connecticut’s history alive and vital with his lectures\, videos\, and blogs. Dr. Woodward is a scholar of Early American and Atlantic World history\, with an emphasis on Connecticut and New England. He is the author of five books. Before becoming a historian in midlife\, he had successful careers in both the music and advertising industries. Walt’s work in all three of his chosen fields has been lauded and won multiple awards. \nConnecticut Ancestry Society\, Inc.’s brief annual meeting begins at 1 pm with the lecture by Walt to immediately follow. \n
