One of the many projects for the town’s 350th anniversary celebration was the completion of Suffield Stories From Another Half-Century 1970-2020. This hardcover book, a companion to The Biography of A Town 1670-1970 by Robert Alcorn written for Suffield’s 300th anniversary, is now available for purchase. This 370+ page book is a compilation of town history including narratives written by over 100 of the town’s residents. The book includes six chapters: Town History over the past 50 years, Suffield Farms, Community Services and Resources, Churches, Education, and Suffield Memories. The book also contains many pictures provided by Suffield residents that will, hopefully, bring back memories for many of us of the past 50 years.
