West Hartford, CT was incorporated in 1854; it had been a part of Hartford Parrish. First set apart as a separate Parrish so that the people on the west side wouldn't have to make the trip to the center of Hartford to worship, the division was requested in a petition to the General Assembly in 1710. They wished to establish a church in their district.
