Excerpt from History of Worcester County, Massachusetts, Embracing a Comprehensive History of the County From Its First Settlement to the Present Time, Vol. 2 of 2: With a History and Description of Its Cities and Towns Original Grants - Boundaries And Surface - Geological Structure - Streams And Water-System - Freedom From Indians - First Settlement - Proprietor's Agreement - Progress - Favorable Situation - Indian Deed Of The Town. This town, situated in the north-easterly part of the county of Worcester, forty miles by carriage-road and forty-six miles by the Fitchburg Railroad, and fifty-three miles by the Old Colony Railroad, from Boston, and twenty miles from Worcester, was formerly - a large share of it - a part of Lancaster; being substantially the northerly half of what was called the "Lancaster New" or "Additional Grant," a tract of land conveyed by George Tahanto, Sagamore of the Nashua tribe of Indians, to Insigne John Moore, John Houghton, and Nathaniel Wilder, dated June 13, 1701, and recorded in the Proprietors' Records, now deposited with the records of the town of Leominster, and confirmed to the town of Lancaster by an order of the General Court, passed Nov. 21 and 22, 1711. To this was afterwards added, by chapter 106 Acts of 1838, a part of the unincorporated laud lying westerly of the first tract, called "No Town." The first tract contained 16,602 acres, or thirty-eight acres less than twenty-six square miles, according to a survey made by Jonas Kendall, Charles Grout, Levi Nichols, David Wilder, and Joseph G. Kendall, as a committee of the town, in the year 1830; and the second, or "No Town" tract, about 2,000 acres, or a little over three square miles, making the present area about twenty-nine square miles. This territory is mostly quite regular in shape, and is bounded northerly by Fitchburg and Lunenburg; easterly, by Lunenburg and Lancaster; southerly, by Sterling; and westerly by Princeton and Westminster.

Unlike 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.
