South Windsor Historical Homes and South Windsor's rich history can be traced back to the time of the very first colonies in Connecticut. In the 17th century, a settler by the name of Thomas Burnham bought a tract of land east of the Connecticut River, from the regional Podunk Indians. By the early 18th century, South Windsor was a bustling community with many farms and agricultural developments. When the American Revolution occurred in 1776, South Windsor supplied the Continental army with more than 200 volunteers. Following the American Revolution, South Windsor became one of the region's premiere tobacco growing areas, and many of these old tobacco farms can still be seen today.
