Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Scituate The town lost much of its extensive territory in 1727, when the new town of Hanover was incorporated, and in 1788, the Two Mile was annexed to Marshfield. During the last century two changes in territorial bounds were made. In 1823, a part of Scituate near the Gulph was annexed to Cohasset, and again, in 1840, the line was re-established and straightened, and a part of each town annexed to the other. The last division was made February 14, 1849, when the south part of the town petitioned to be set off, and incorporated as the town of South Scituate. In 1888, that name was changed to Norwell, for Henry Norwell, of Boston, a summer resident, whose wife was of wellknown Scituate ancestry. The reasons for the division are not clearly understood at the present day, except by inference, but at the time of the division, Scituates chief interests were her farms and her fishing industry. There were no summer residents at her beaches to swell her valuation, and the shore property was then of little intrinsic value, except for the kelp cast up by the surf. This highly valued product of the sea was the cause of much interesting litigation in years past. South Scituate's shipbuilding industry was decidedly on the wane in 1849, but the desire to maintain her own roads and schools may have been a dominant factor in bringing about the division. It is remembered that South Scituate was thought at the time to have got the better of the bargain, as the Town Hall, then at Sherman's Corner, and the Town Farm in South Scituate Village fell to her share. We now realize that Scituate was the fortunate partner of the contract, her then undeveloped shore property having become her greatest asset.

Download or read book Town Born written by Barry Levy and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-07-06 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, British colonists found the New World full of resources. With land readily available but workers in short supply, settlers developed coercive forms of labor—indentured servitude and chattel slavery—in order to produce staple export crops like rice, wheat, and tobacco. This brutal labor regime became common throughout most of the colonies. An important exception was New England, where settlers and their descendants did most work themselves. In Town Born, Barry Levy shows that New England's distinctive and far more egalitarian order was due neither to the colonists' peasant traditionalism nor to the region's inhospitable environment. Instead, New England's labor system and relative equality were every bit a consequence of its innovative system of governance, which placed nearly all land under the control of several hundred self-governing town meetings. As Levy shows, these town meetings were not simply sites of empty democratic rituals but were used to organize, force, and reconcile laborers, families, and entrepreneurs into profitable export economies. The town meetings protected the value of local labor by persistently excluding outsiders and privileging the town born. The town-centered political economy of New England created a large region in which labor earned respect, relative equity ruled, workers exercised political power despite doing the most arduous tasks, and the burdens of work were absorbed by citizens themselves. In a closely observed and well-researched narrative, Town Born reveals how this social order helped create the foundation for American society.
