Excerpt from Stonington by the Sea This little volume has been compiled for the purpose of providing a convenient and inexpensive history of Stonington - particularly that part of the town that is within or adjacent to the boundaries of Stonington Borough. No attempt has been made to rival the larger works that deal with the history of the town. Anyone who wishes to know more of the subject than could be com pressed within the restricted pages of this book will find it extensively treated in the late Judge Richard A. Wheeler's excellent history and genealogy, and in the attractive volume, Homes of Our Ancestors, by his daughter, Miss Grace D. Wheeler.
