The history of West Haven really began in 1638 when the early settlers landed in New Haven at what is now the intersection of College and George Streets. Land extending westward from the Quinnipiac River to approximately the foot of what is now known as Allingtown Hill and Cove River was purchased from the Indians and on May 20, 1645, additional acreage was obtained but this latter purchase caused a long dispute with Milford who claimed to have bought the same land. This whole area was called West Farms and it was originally used for cattle pasturage. Salt hay was cut there and oysters and clams were gathered from the waters of Long Island Sound. The year 1639 saw a footbridge built across West River to facilitate crossing. In 1640, these "common lands" were divided by lot and the following year a cart bridge was erected over the West River. The records reveal that in 1646 one Nehemiah Smith cared for all the town sheep in return for the use of certain west-side pasturage as his own.
By the time West Farms Community turned the corner into the eighteenth century, they became disenchanted with their lack of voice in the affairs of a growing New Haven and on April 29, 1712, petitioned New Haven for separate parish privileges, stressing the increase in population and the distance from their dwellings to the Center Church. New Haven, with a weather eye on the revenue involved in losing so many families, denied the petition. However, the petition was presented to the State Assembly in 1714 and in 1715 the Assembly created the parish of West Haven with bounds which included the present West Haven as well as the Town of Orange. Its simple parish government was formally organized in 1719 when it was incorporated by the Assembly. From that date, the town government had its real beginning.
Hurricane "Gloria" visited us, not by invitation, in 1985. While not as devastating as the 1938 storm, it did bring winds of 90 miles an hour and our City was blacked out in spots for a week. Some 2500 people were without power. Damage was great, but our people responded as they always have, and we soon were back on track.
We have thriving businesses in our City which are too many to enumerate, but which contribute much to our lives, i.e., employment, taxes, enjoyment of life and countless other values. We are indeed grateful for them all. No one can foresee what vicissitudes may lie ahead for us in the next twenty-five years, but we must remember the motto on our flag, "NIL DESPERADUM", never despair.
