Settled in 1670, Then a Town of Pewter and Silver
About 126 settlers arrived in 1670, and in the 1800s Wallingford had many small makers of pewter and Britannia ware. R. Wallace & Company, the forerunner of Wallace Silversmiths, came out of that time, and the International Silver Company ran several plants here. The town's own plan names the Town Center and Yalesville as its traditional village neighborhoods, and both, with every street between them, are inside the area we cover.
