Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the early history of Rutland, a town in Massachusetts, through the eyes of a resident who lived for over seventy years in the community. The author meticulously documents the town's founding, tracing its origins to an Indian deed from 1686 and its subsequent confirmation by the General Court in 1713. You'll learn about the town's early settlers, their struggles to carve out a life in a wilderness, and the gradual growth of the community, with the establishment of a meetinghouse and schools. The book also delves into the town's role in the Revolutionary War and the subsequent Shays Rebellion. The author, drawing on a range of sources including town records, historical accounts, and personal observations, provides a comprehensive and engaging narrative of Rutland's past, showcasing the courage, resourcefulness, and resilience of its founding families. By contrasting the hardships of the first settlers with the more prosperous circumstances of later generations, the book offers a valuable perspective on the development of American society and the importance of remembering and learning from the past.
