Paul V: regarding the 1779 Westville cannon that you mentioned was removed from Edgewood Park (in a previous post that doesn’t allow for commenting)

Have you tried calling the Parks Department or the NH Museum? A curator at the museum should be interested. And if not under the purview of Parks, parks department should at least be able to direct you to the right person. There is also an active Westville Alliance that may be able to press for an answer, too.
It is a shame to loose a piece of our town’s history. And If it was stolen, a police report should be filed.

Hello Jane ! very happy to hear your interest for the cannon , i called the parks department years ago they did not know of it NH museum said look through their pictures email out of town historical said most likely stolen i know it laid on stone support i found cement footing is still there
iv stating think city do not want historical sites this way they build project without referencing them
my thought if for or against history value young old feel free if you want talk about it share paul valanzuolo 203 397 3616 fountain st of westville ,,then it was called hotchkiss town

Hi Paul! My young son & I saw you pulling old tires out of West River, and I just wanted to say thank you!!! Your grappling hook & rope method was awesome. Thanks for caring about the river & the neighborhood. I walk my 5-year old 3 blocks to school & back every day and I’m always lamenting the amount of garbage & litter on the street. Well, this week I picked up all the street litter on our side of Austin and Blake. Where I grew up people knew better than to chuck litter out the window of their car, but apparently not in Connecticut. But thanks, Paul, for being one of the good ones!
