Diane, How cool is that!?
I'll check with my Dad to see of he has any memories of the area name origination. I also have an Uncle that worked in CL&P management starting in the 50's. Maybe he heard a story or two. I'll check.
As you can guess, I got very sidetracked and haven't revisited my Dikeman research lately but I will- promise :)))
Take Care,
Dotti
