_The Imperial Band, later called the Stonington Band, on Hancox Street in Stonington Borough at the time of World War I. (From South of the Cannons, the Portuguese Families of Stonington, Connecticut)
‘South of the Cannons', a new Stonington Historical Society book, tells of Portuguese who came from the Azores starting in the 1840s, creating a vital community on Connecticut side of the Atlantic
The Stonington Historical Society has published a new book by a local genealogist, Henrietta Mello Mayer. The book, “South of the Cannons, the Portuguese Families of Stonington, Connecticut,” has been a long-time project of the author, who was born on Omega Street in the community she writes about, the southern portion of Stonington Borough when it was a primarily Portuguese neighborhood. This new version of a book she published privately in 1978 is richly illustrated with photographs, some never put between covers before.
To order the book direct from the Historical Society, use this link: www.stoningtonhistory.org, then go to the tab for buying books.
