Description
Excerpt from Boxborough; A New England Town and Its People: Compiled for the Middlesex County History
I have been led to believe, by conversation upon the subject with some of the older residents of the place, that a history of Boxborough printed in a small volume, separately from The History of Middlesex County, would be favorably received by many of those who are interested in the welfare of the town, or who have been connected with it from early years.
I therefore issue the book in its present form. It is with some misgivings that these pages are placed before the citizens of Q Boxborough, many of whom are familiar with its history from the beginning. For besides laboring under the disadvan tage of having been a resident of the town, and acquainted with it, only a few years, I have been obliged to glean a part of the facts from somewhat incomplete town and church records, and the rest from the personal recollections of the people. Upon perusal, therefore, should errors become apparent to any, the author asks for lenient criticism.
For myself, I would say, I have become very much inter ested in the town and also in its early inhabitants while engaged in studying and writing this history.
