Founders of Hartford, Connecticut

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

List only supported by a single cite and most of the people don't appear to be notable (see WP:Listcruft). I'd suggest a merge with Hartford, Connecticut or History of Hartford, Connecticut. FallingGravity (talk) 05:27, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Merge to History of Hartford, Connecticut. The topic of the founders of Hartford (although not necessarily all of their names) is worthy of coverage in the encyclopedia, but I don't see anything to indicate that it merits its own article. History of Hartford seems like the right place for this content. FWIW: I edited this article a few years ago, after finding backlinks to it from other articles that described various people as descendants of one of the Founders. The topic of the "Founders" is one that gets third-party attention, even if the list does not. --Orlady (talk) 15:13, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
