Morris, CT Real Estate Guide
Originally called South Farms, this area was settled in the 1720s as part of the frontier town of Litchfield. The land was surveyed by Captain John March in 1715 and was purchased for fifteen pounds from the Bantam tribe of the friendly Pooatuck. The boundaries of South Farms were defined in 1767 when the Ecclesiastical Society was incorporated with seventy families. Although chiefly agricultural, South Farms built saw mills and grist mills on its rivers, had several small industries and stores and developed a summer resort business on Bantam Lake. The Town was named in honor of James Moris, a Yale graduate, Revolutionary War captain, selectman and member of the General Assembly. Today, Morris is a rural town with a population of about 2,300 people.
