ENTERED, A ccording to Act of Congress, in the year 1838, BY E DWARD R. LAMBERT, In the Clerk's Office of the District Court of Connecticut. PREFACE. AUTHENTIC h istory is of high importance. It exhibits the juris prudence, science, morals, and religion of nations, and while it •warns to shun their errors, holds forth their virtues for imitation in bold relief. But where is the history more interesting and important than that of our own, "our much loved native land," that abounds in incidents more romantic, or narrative more thrilling? Buta little more than two centuries have elapsed since the first band of the " Puritan Fathers" left their native home, crossed the wild Atlantic, landed on the snow-clad rock of Plymouth, and laid the first foundation stone of New England. Within this period a change has here taken place, and in our common counfry unparalleled in the history of mankind. A great and powerful nation has arisen. The desert has been made " to bud and blossom as the rose." And •what but the sword of civil discord can arrest the giant march of improvement, (yet advancing with accelerating rapidity,) till " the noblest empire iu the reign of time" shall extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific wave.

  • County Government in Connecticut
    Office of Legislative Research Research Report December 23, 2015 2015-R-0274 COUNTY GOVERNMENT IN CONNECTICUT By: Rute Pinho, Principal Analyst Julia Singer Bansal, Associate Analyst ISSUE Provide (1) previous OLR reports on the history of county government in Connecticut, (2) information on the revenue sources that financed Connecticut’s counties, and (3) a comparison of county governments in other states. SUMMARY Since 1960, counties in Connecticut have existed only as geographical regions, without their own independent government. The duties and functions of the state's eight counties were eliminated by legislation passed in 1959 and 1961. Prior to their elimination, county governments had limited functions. They primarily operated jails but also maintained courthouse buildings; inspected weights and measures; resolved disputes over the maintenance of roads, highways, and sidewalks; administered certain kinds of trust funds; and contributed financial aid for agricultural extension services, hospitals, and forest fire fighting. At the time of their abolition, Connecticut’s county governments relied principally on a county tax, levied annually on towns and cities located within each county, to finance their operations. Their other revenue sources included a share in the state’s unincorporated business tax, liquor manufacturers' and wholesalers' license fees collected by the State Liquor Control Commission, and state and municipal grants for prison operations. In most states, counties are the primary governing entity below the state government. According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2012 Census of Governments, there are 3,031 county governments throughout the country. Their primary responsibilities often include recordkeeping, election administration, road construction and maintenance, parks management, and law and code enforcement.
