"==Material deleted, incorrect material put in place by user Pgagnon999==

A certain user has deleted correct information and posted politically biased information in this article.

These are all in the first three paragraphs on the history of the town. 

Paragraph 1.
The original town name of Middletown was spelled ""Mattabeseck"", this can be seen in the records of the general Assembly of Connecticut, which were QUOTED in this article until the ignorant and unscrupulous poster deleted the reference. This is significant in that southwestern Algonquin was spoken with a much harder inflection on the consonants, -and Mattabeseck is a southwestern Algonquin town.

Paragraph 2.
Quotations about Puritan life in general are irrelevant in this article. 

Paragraph 3.
William Cronin is not a reliable source for local detail in Connecticut. Cronin's highly inflammatory accounts of the history of the settlement of America is very controversial, and has been shown to be very factually inaccurate and unreliable. It was very popular as a piece of political argument, and very poor historical scholarship.

That this article MUST include this kind of erroneous detail is unfortunate. That the systems and procedures that define Wikipedia are not able to withstand this kind of assault from the politically-minded and ignorant marks the limitation of Wikipedia's usefulness.
