Nichols, a historic village in southeastern Trumbull in Fairfield County, Connecticut, is named after the family who maintained a large farm in its center for almost 300 years. The Nichols Farms Historic District, which encompasses part of the village, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally home to the Golden Hill Paugussett Indian Nation, the area was colonized by the English during the Great Migration of the 1630s as a part of the coastal settlement of Stratford.

Le District Historique de Nichols Farm, qui recouvre une grande partie du village, est classé au National Register of Historic Places. Occupée par une tribu Pequots, la région fut annexée par les Puritains anglais de la colonie de Stratford lors de la guerre des Pequots. La fermeture de l'usine, l'aménagement d'une voie rapide (la Merritt Parkway), et la désaffection subséquente pour les commerces locaux ont fait de ce village une ville-dortoir à la veille de la Deuxième guerre mondiale. Le pionnier de l'aviation Igor Sikorsky y a réalisé ses principales inventions entre 1928 et 1951, (fr) Nichols, a historic village in southeastern Trumbull in Fairfield County, Connecticut, is named after the family who maintained a large farm in its center for almost 300 years.
