Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It almost was not Westminster. The small town in central Massachusetts was born to another name, that of Narragansett 2, and it was not for another twenty years that the area became known as Westminster. One early settler, Abner Holden, described it as "a howling wilderness." Today's Westminster is a charming Colonial town, with the impressive peak of Mount Wachusett overlooking its rolling hills and its pristine lakes and ponds. In Westminster, the story unfolds from the first settlers gathering on Academy Hill to weather the bleak early years to the joyous return of the soldiers from the bloody battles of World War II. It portrays the early inventive entrepreneurs, along with the sturdy men and women who made the town's blueberries famous and its chickens delicious. Savor the memories of the Westminster Cracker Factory and the golden corn fritters of the well-known Old Mill Restaurant, recall the bustling chair factory of Artemus Merriam, and remember the wartime heroes and eager faces of Westminster's children. Capture in Westminster the spirit of the town's residents joining together in celebration and tragedy, from the first festive centennial parade to the pain of devastating fires.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Westminster is the oldest town in Vermont, and its history is visible down every street. Vermont itself was born here, when the first blood of the American Revolution was shed during the Westminster Massacre and it separated from New York. Westminster declined in political importance during the nineteenth century, but its agricultural heritage bloomed as residents exported everything from beef to vegetables to Christmas wreaths. Despite its small size, Westminster also boasts unique neighborhoods with their own vibrant cultures, including Westminster Village, Gageville and Westminster West. From brilliant inventors and the co-founder of the Oneida Community to a Miss Vermont, an Oscar-winning actress and Vermont's eighty-first governor, the famous sons and daughters of Westminster have left their marks on the state and the nation. Celebrated local author Jessie Haas and the Westminster Historical Society showcase what makes Westminster such an amazing and quintessentially Vermont community.

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Account of the Exercises Connected With the 150th Anniversary Celebration of the Town of Westminster, Massachusetts, 1909: Together With Historical Legendary Reminiscences Connected With the Town Little did the first settlers in that part of Massachusetts known as the town of Westminster, dream that their decision to establish homes for themselves in what was then an unexplored wilderness, would mark the occasion for semi-centennial celebrations of the event. Twice the residents of Westminster have gathered together to honor the memory of the first settlers, and without doubt this custom will be continued twice in each century by succeeding generations. The townspeople of Westminster had been looking forward with considerable anticipation to the celebration in the summer of 1909 of the 150th anniversary of the incorporation of the town. The project took definite form at the Old Folks' Picnic, held in August, 1908, when Wilbur F. Whitney of Ashburnham, a native of Westminster, urged that a committee be appointed to have charge of the 150th anniversary celebration, and offered to give a liberal sum as a nucleus for a fund to provide for the expenses connected therewith. At the annual meeting in March, 1909, the town voted to celebrate the event and appropriated $500 for this purpose. A committee of three, consisting of Joseph Hager, Daniel C. Miles and George W. Barnes, were appointed by the moderator to retire and bring in a list of names for a committee of arrangements.
