Town InformationThe town of Southington located in central Connecticut was first settled in 1698 and 1779 it was incorporated from Farmington. The town (covering 36.9 sq. miles) was one of the first industrial centers in the area , with several mills and a large brass foundry in operation before 1800. Perhaps the most important factor in the town's history of industrial success has been in the number of manufacturing innovations and inventions first developed here. In 1819, a n ew tinware process was perfected and patented by Seth Peck. In 1825 production began here on the first water-hardened cement in the country. Then, in 1845, the local economy got another boost when Micah Rugg invented the first machine to mass produce ca rriage bolts. Production of special hardware items, tools, and even the first breakneck rat trap all contributed to the solidification of solid a manufacturing center. Population: 40,190.
