Excerpt from Proprietors' Records of the Town of Waterbury, Connecticut: 1677-1761 In this its first printed book the Mattatuck Historical Society publishes certain ancient documents relating to the early history of the town of Waterbury, - originally known as Mattatuck. A brief reference to the early history will explain the origin of the documents and their relation to one another and thus place them in their proper historical setting. In October, 1673, a petition signed by twenty-six inhabitants of Farmington was presented to the General Court at Hartford, asking permission to "make a small plantation" at "a place called by the Indians Matitacoocke." The General Court, having been advised by men whom they had sent to "view those lands" that the place was a suitable one at which to begin a new settlement, granted the petition and appointed a committee of five persons "to regulate and order the settling of a plantation at Matitack." This committee, known afterwards as the "Committee for Mattatuck," or the "Grand Committee," had for its task as Doctor Henry Bronson describes it in his "History of Waterbury," "to make rules for the planters and prescribe the conditions of settlement," to act "as the temporary guardians and the fathers of the plantation, with all the power usually exercised by town authorities... in fact to found a town and organize it."
