TRUMBULL, JAMES HAMMOND (1821-1897) , American scholar, was born in
Stonington
 , Connecticut, on the loth of December 1821. He studied at Yale, but ill-
health
  prevented his graduation. He was state librarian in 1854-1855, assistant-secretary of state of Connecticut in 1847-1852 and in 1858-1861, and secretary of state in 1861-1866; and was a prominent member of the Connecticut Historical Society, of which he was president in 1863-1889, the National
Academy
  of Science, to which he was elected in 1872, and of other learned
societies
 . He died in Hartford on the 5th of August 1897. He wrote Historical Notes on some Provisions of the Connecticut Statutes (186o-1861) and The True Blue
Laws
  of Connecticut (1876), and edited The Colonial Records of Connecticut (3 vols., 1850-1859). He is better known, however, as a student of the Indian dialects of New
England
 .
He edited
Roger
  Williams's Key to the Language of America (1866), and wrote The Composition of Indian Geographical Names (1870), The Best Methods of Studying the Indian
Languages
  (1871), Indian Names of Places in ... Connecticut with Interpretations (1881) and other works on similar subjects.
