2008 is Windsor's 375th Birthday

This year marks the 375th birthday of Windsor, Connecticut's oldest town. We’re anticipating many out-of-town DFAW members -- as well as many descendants of Windsor’s founding families who aren’t members -- to be on hand for at least some of the Windsor 375 events and are working hard to provide a number of ways for fellow Descendants to meet their cousins. Watch this blog for information as it becomes available.
