Details | Please join the Branford Historical Society on Wednesday, January 18th at 6 PM at the Blackstone Memorial Library, as local historian and author Jim Powers returns to share the story of the Quinnipiac People. The Quinnipiac were the descendants of Indigenous people who first arrived in our region following the end of the Ice Age. By the start of the 17th century, they lived along the Shoreline from West Haven to Clinton and north to Cheshire and Meriden. Totoket (Branford) was one of their villages. How did the arrival of Europeans, first the Dutch then the English, impact the Quinnipiac and what factors led to their eventual dispersal? Where are the Quinnipiac today? This talk will tell their story.
