The Calkins Family Association bought Hugh’s house!
Hear a 2-minute tour of how the City of Norwich, CT began on this very spot. https://bit.ly/CalkinsOrigins.
The historical home of our ancestor Hugh Calkins II, located at 232 West Town Street, Norwich, Connecticut, was slated for demolition. The Calkins Family Association (CFA) Board of Directors held an emergency discussion and overwhelmingly agreed to purchase his home and rescue it from the wrecking ball.
