Nor·walk
(nôr′wôk′) A city of southwest Connecticut on Long Island Sound northeast of Stamford. Founded in the mid-1600s, it was largely destroyed by the British in 1779 during the American Revolution. After the war, some residents were compensated for their losses with land grants in the Western Reserve, and they founded what is today Norwalk, Ohio.
