История
Хаддам, расположенный в округе Миддлсекс, находится в южно-центральной части Коннектикута, в нижней долине реки Коннектикут. Здесь также находится государственный лес Коккопсет. Город был основан в октябре 1668 года под названием Hadham, но, что необычно для многих городов Новой Англии, оканчивающихся на "-ham", его написание со временем стало соответствовать фонетическому произношению. Хаддам – единственный город в Коннектикуте, разделённый рекой Коннектикут, и один из трёх городов, разделённых рекой Коннектикут на всём её протяжении; два других – Нортфилд (Массачусетс) и Питтсбург (Нью-Гэмпшир). В Хаддаме пять деревень: Hidden Lake, Higganum, Shailerville и Tylerville – на западном берегу реки, и Haddam Neck – на восточном. На протяжении первых двухсот лет своего существования река Коннектикут была основным источником дохода и транспортным путём для города. Сегодня Хаддам – это преимущественно жилой район. Город был назван в честь Муч-Хаддам и Литтл-Хаддам в графстве Гертфордшир, Англия, известных вместе как The Hadhams.
Haddam, in Middlesex County, is located in south central Connecticut in the lower Connecticut River Valley. It is also home to Cockaponset State Forest. It was incorporated in October 1668 as Hadham, but unusually for the many New England towns ending in ham, the spelling eventually came to reflect the phonetic pronunciation. Haddam is the only town in Connecticut divided by the Connecticut River, and only one of three divided towns along the entire Connecticut River, the other two being Northfield, Massachusetts, and Pittsburg, New Hampshire. Haddam contains five villages: Hidden Lake, Higganum, Shailerville, and Tylerville on the west side of the river, and Haddam Neck on the east. For the first two hundred years of the town's existence, the Connecticut River was a major source of income and transportation. Today, the town of Haddam is a residential community. The town was named for Much Hadham and Little Hadham in Hertfordshire, England, collectively known as The Hadhams.
