| Originally
6000 acres granted to residents of Braintree, the village of
"Braintree Farms" was enlarged by the addition of tracts formerly of
Brookfield and Hardwick and in 1751 was incorporated as "New
Braintree." Previously occupied by a large contingent of Native
Americans, the area became noted for its good farmers, and bountiful
harvests.
By
the late 18th century, New Braintree was shipping its annual
production of dairy products, cheese and beef to Boston and had
attained a high degree of prosperity. Over 1,000 milk cows lived in
New Braintree by the 19th century and the town produced over 200,000
pounds of cheese annually. Townspeople made shoes, built carriages
and made spoke shaves. |
