DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from An Historical Sketch of Charlestown, in the County of Middlesex, and Commonwealth of Massachusetts: Read to an Assembly of Citizens at the Opening of Washington Hall, Nov; 16, 1813 There are periods in society, as well as in the life of an individual, when it is peculiarly proper, by a review of past occurrences, to trace the progress of improvement, and excite such feelings, as may lead to future usefulness. On this occasion, when we are convened in such auspicious circumstances, and may rationally estimate the advantages of a laudable exertion for ourselves and our posterity, I deem it appropriate to attempt a general sketch of our municipal history, and offer such observations as comport with the design of our present meeting. Among the intrepid advocates of civil and religious freedom, who encountered the dangers of the ocean, and the greater danger of the wilderness, were nine or ten persons, who, in the summer of 1628, travelled by land from Naumkeak, now called Salem, and, under the authority of governour Endicot, constituted this placet an English settlement. They here found an "English thatched house pallisadoed," and occupied by Thomas Walford, a smith by trade, of whom no particular account is preserved.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKUnlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Genealogies and Estates of Charlestown, in the County of Middlesex and Commonwealth of Massachusetts: 1629-1818; A-J A few cases will be met with of a baptismal name in capitals beginning a paragraph and followed by a group number only - the insertion of the details concerning suich persons unfortunately having been deferred by the author for reasons unknown to us. Ebenezer Wade 10 is a case in point. There are also a very few cases in which a hiatus occurs in the enumeration of the groups in a family where no omission of matter appears to have been made. The Shed family furnishes an illustration of these lapses, there being no group numbered 3. These cases are presented, however, as they stand in the author's manuscript. Some families were found to be so numerous as to require special indices. These are placed at the beginning of the articles, and refer by group number to every head of a family, whether his name stands as the head of a group or occurs within one as having contracted marriage.
