Eleanor ConlonHOST
Below the shield is a white or silver ribbon displaying the state motto in Latin, qui transstiltit sustinet, which means he who transplanted still sustains.
Eleanor ConlonHOST
Which is
Eleanor ConlonHOST
I think they'd be quite hard work.
Martin VauxHOST
Yes, so the colony came about after the Reverend Thomas Hooker, favouring a more democratic approach to church governance than Massachusetts allowed, led a hundred settlers and a herd of cattle through the wilderness in 1636, which is pretty darn early.
Martin VauxHOST
They founded Hartford, joining the existing settlements of Wethersfield and Windsor.
Eleanor ConlonHOST

Mandel KramerVOICE_ACTOR
Expense account item one is $4.60 for a tank full of gas, despite the fact that the state pen is only a few miles south in Wethersfield, a town with a population of about 20,000, where the father of our country once planned the historic Battle of Yorktown.

Al WeinbergGUEST
So some of these folks came to Boston, and they didn't get along there with other people on mostly religious arguments.
Al WeinbergGUEST
So they trekked down to the Connecticut River, which was the wilderness, and founded the city of Hartford and the towns of Wethersfield and Windsor in the early 1600s.
Al WeinbergGUEST
And then after 10 or 20 years, religious disputes arose again.
Al WeinbergGUEST
They couldn't agree on who knows what.
