What are some colonial leaders from connecticut?

Question

Think 1636!

Answer 1

1636 would be about the time of the Pequot War, so you're probably looking for Thomas Hooker, Captain John Mason, Robert Seeley.

Thomas Hooker founded Hartford, CT, and helped create the "Fundamental Orders of Connecticut", which is often considered the first written constitution.

John Mason led the settlers in a military expedition, destroying their strongold in Mystic Connecticut (the Mystic Massacre). He later helped found Norwich, CT.

Robert Seeley was John Mason's second in command, and later helped found New Haven, CT.
