Historic Map - Terryville, CT - 1894

Terryville, now part of Plymouth, Connecticut, was named after clockmaker Eli Terry Jr. Terry was the son of well-known clockmaker Eli Terry Sr. who had sold his clock manufactory in nearby Wolcott to his assistant Seth Thomas. Terry the younger was also a fine clockmaker, but grew popular when he purchased lock making equipment and created the Eagle Lock Company that would become Terryville's largest employer.
