CD: History of the Town of Lynnfield, Massachusetts, 1635-1895

CD: History of the Town of Lynnfield, Massachusetts, 1635-1895 - Thomas Wellman. The book first examines the topographical appearance and nature of the town. Next we read about the oldest houses and some haunting stories that bring them to life. Then there are the town's cornerstones: the old meeting-house, the town hall, and the old schools, all of which brought the people together through religion and education. The following two chapters are the annals from 1635 through 1800 replete with personal accounts, legends, specific dates, records and background of how the town of Lynnfield was shaped. The next few chapters cover the Revolutionary War, ecclesiastical history, Lynnfield's dates of establishment, the War of 1812 and the Civil War. This volume ends with chapters on the town's founding families and chronicles of the 19th century; an appendix of sundry facts and statistics; and a new fullname index. Nearly fifty photographs and a plethora of poetic odes give the text a refreshing air. (c1900), 2006, CD, Graphic Images, Adobe Acrobat, v6, PC and Mac, 349 pp. 101-CD4226 ISBN: 0788442260
