(Hartford, Connecticut, USA.)

Also: • The Hartford Times. •

(1817-1976)

The Hartford Times was a daily afternoon newspaper serving the Hartford, Connecticut, community from 1817 to 1976. It was started by Frederick D. Bolles and John M. Niles, a future senator, as an anti-federalist weekly by the name of The Hartford Weekly Times in 1817. It styled itself as a champion of reform and an advocate for the people throughout its history. One early editor was Gideon Welles, later secretary of the Navy during the Civil War. Alfred E. Burr led the paper for over six decades from 1829 until 1890, making it a daily and giving him considerable political influence statewide. (WP)
