Founders Monument
Hartford, Connecticut

 

 

  Erected by the Society of the Descendents of The Founders of Hartford 1986 to Commemorate the 350th Anniversary of the City. The original monument made of Brownstone was erected in 1837.  This stone replaces the original sandstone monument of 1837.  Despite efforts to conserve and restore it.  This replacement monument is made of Granite.  It is the same size and proportion as the original. The only difference between the two is that the names are now listed in alphabetical order and several names that were omitted from the 1837 monument have been included.
