They were a farming and fishing culture, cultivating corn, squash, beans and tobacco, and fishing in freshwater areas. They may have also travelled to the coast to fish in summer months. Colonial times In 1707, John Noble Sr., previously of Westfield, Massachusetts and his eight - year - old daughter Sarah Noble were the first Anglo - American settlers. ( A public school was later named after Sarah Noble. ) They were soon joined by others who had also bought land there. On October 17, 1711, twelve families ( including about 70 people ) petitioned the General Assembly to create the town, together with the associated privilege of levying a tax to support a minister. With the legislature 's approval, the town was organized the next year. The residents soon secured Daniel Boardman to preach and he was ordained as the minister of the Congregational Church on November 21, 1716. American Revolution Roger Sherman lived in New Milford before moving to New Haven in 1761. He later became a member of the Continental Congress and signed both the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution. The lot of his former house is the site of the present Town Hall. During the American Revolution, the 7th Connecticut Regiment ( also known as 19th Continental Regiment ) was raised in town on September 16, 1776.
