This publication provides a complete history of the town of Weston, Massachusetts, from its religious origin to its separation from Watertown as a precinct. With churches being the core of organization during the early settlements of New England, this work follows the ecclesiastical development of society through annals of the church and town meetings. The author gives a general description of the town and military organization, Weston's role in the French and Indian Wars, old town records, and financial records, and covers subjects such as the impact of the Revolution, war veterans, railroads, businesses, schools and teachers, medicine, and taverns. Additionally, nine appendices are included in these records providing Reverend Samuel Kendal's letter of acceptance, Reverend Joseph Field's letter of acceptance, seating arrangement of the meeting house, Town Clerks from 1721-1913, Town Treasurers from 1754-1913, representatives of the town from 1712-1890, Selectmen from 1754, Weston's separation from Watertown as a precinct, and location and present ownership of historic buildings and places. Vintage photographs and a full-name index enhance this work.
