    This is a partial/incomplete listing as I have not yet explored the General Hoar Preserve.

    History

    From the land trust site,

    Luva Hoar donated the property in 1993/94 in honor of her husband, the General John Hoar. Luva once said, “This is a special piece of property, we loved to walk it.  I just wanted to save it.”

    General Hoar who was a decorated veteran of WWII. From 1952-59, he was the Director of Operations with the Connecticut Air National Guard. He was appointed Brigadier General in 1975, and he died in 1981.
