Lebanon is a historic town located in New London County in east-central Connecticut. As of the 2000 census, the population was 6,907 residents. The town is just northwest of the city of Norwich and just 20 miles from Hartford. The village of Lebanon is most well-known for its historic Town Green and for its role in the American Revolution, for which it has earned the nickname of the "Heartbeat of the Revolution." The Town Green is one of the largest in any town in the U.S. and is the only one that is still used partially for agriculture. The town of Lebanon was incorporated in 1700. The state of Connecticut's war effort during the Revolutionary War was directed from the Town Green and the adjacent home of Governor Jonathan Trumbull Sr. William Williams, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, was a native of Lebanon and the son-in-law of Governor Trumbull. Jonathon Trumbull was the only British Colonial Governor to side with the Americans during the Revolution and to serve as one of George Washington's Chief Quartermasters who helped manage the affairs of the Continental Army. The council that Trumbull organized met over 1,100 times, mostly in Trumbull's own home in Lebanon. It was this importance of the Trumbull family and the town of Lebanon in the war effort that led to the nickname of the town "Heartbeat of the Revolution."
