Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Record of the Services Held at the Congregational Church of Windsor, Conn: In Celebration of Its Two Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary, March 30, 1880 At its annual meeting in January, the Congregational Church of Windsor voted "suitably to celebrate the approaching two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of this Church;" and Dea. J. B. Woodford, Dea. Daniel Payne, Samuel B. Hayden, William Bailey, and Dr. Samuel A. Wilson were chosen a committee to cooperate with the Pastor, Gowen C. Wilson, in making the necessary arrangements, and nominating special committees to carry out the different parts of the programme which should be adopted for that day. Subsequently committees were appointed by the Church, on their nomination, on printing and invitation; on music; on decoration of the church; on providing food and spreading and attending tables for entertainment of guests; on horses and conveyances; on finance; and on entertainment. It was voted to invite the following churches to unite with us in the celebration: Church in South Windsor, Church in Bloomfield, Church in Windsor Locks, Church in Poquonnock, First Church, Hartford, and Church in Wethersfield. Invitations were sent also to all who had any personal interest in the Church through previous membership or descent from any of its old members. A few other guests were invited also, for special reasons. The committees all accepted their appointments, and did their part heartily and efficiently. The ladies waited upon and fed about five hundred people at dinner and supper, and had provision made for half as many more. Of them a guest writes: - "They acquitted themselves nobly, generously, grandly, - every way to their credit."
