Excerpt from Old Naumkeag: An Historical Sketch of the City of Salem, and the Towns of Marblehead, Peabody, Beverly, Danvers, Wenham, Manchester, Topsfield, and Middleton A few years after the settlement at Plymouth a number of persons led by Rev. John Lyford, dis satisfied with the extreme separation of the Colony and Church from the English Church, removed to Nantasket, near the entrance to Boston harbor, where they made a temporary settlement, and the next year (1625) removed again, this time to Cape Ann. Here they attempted to plant a farming, fish ing and trading colony, and being joined by Mr. Lyford, and Roger Conant, the former was made preacher and the latter governor. When Conant arrived at Cape Ann, which must have been some time in the fall of 1625, he found the affairs in an unsatisfactory state. The fishing had turned out unprofitable and there was much insubordination. He was unable to revive the interest, and in the fall of 1626 the settlement broke up, a portion of the people returning to England. Conant, it appears, had sailed up along the shores of the Cape as far as the mouth of the Naumkeag river during the summer of that year, and marked it as one evidently suitable as a receptacle for such as upon the account of religion would be willing to begin a for eign plantation in this part of the world. Conant was a man of vigor and courage, and he succeeded on his return in breathing enough of his own spirit into those of the settlers who had not already re turned, to induce them to follow him to N aumkeag; there to lay the foundation of a colony destined to plant the spirit of Puritanism so deeply and so firmly that amid the changes of two hundred and fifty years it still bears its impress.

Topsfield.--Settlement And Churches.--Its Part In The Witchcraft Delusion.--Original Settlers.--Prominent Men.--Population.--Valuation And Other Statistics.--Middleton.--Topograph.--Industries.--History.--Population, Valuation And Products. tit he town of Topsfield is the most northerly 'I' portion of the territory originally comprised in I Naumkeag. It was settled by people from (tmf Salem and Ipswich, in 1639, and was incorporated as a separate town on October 18,1650. The Indian name of the place was "Shenewemedy." "When it belonged to Naumkeag, it was known as the "New Meadows." The name Topsfield is derived from a parish in England, bearing that name. The first church was organized in 1663, with Rev. Thomas Gilbert as pastor. It is still sustained, and, until the formation of the Methodist church, in 1830, was the only religious organization in town. It is now of the Congregational order. Mary Estes and Sarah Wildes of this place, were executed as victims of the witchcraft delusion in 1692, and Abigail Hobbs was condemned to death on a like charge but was subsequently pardoned. In early times, bears and wolves infested the town, and it was threatened with Indian attacks, which led to the construction of a fort or garrison-house, (300) but history does not record that it was ever brought into requisition. Among the men recorded as original settlers or owners of Topsfield, we find Samuel Symonds, John Endicott, Simon Bradstreet, Zaccheus Gould, Francis Peabody, William Towne, Thomas Perkins, John Wildes, Nathaniel Porter and Abraham Redington. Among the distinguished men who hailed from the town, were Nathaniel Peabody, a statesman, physician and soldier; Jacob Kimball, a music composer and the author of "Rural...

A close-up look at this historic Massachusetts landmark, including photos and illustrations. Though Salem is located on Massachusetts’s scenic North Shore, its history has not always been picturesque. The “Witch City,” as it is internationally known, is home to numerous landmarks dedicated to the notorious trials of 1692. Of these, the Witch House is perhaps most significant—the former residence of Judge Jonathan Corwin, whose court ordered the execution of twenty men and women. It was here that Corwin examined the unfortunate accused. There is, however, more to this ancient building than its most famous occupant. From wars and death to prosperity and progress, this book searches beneath the beams and studs of the Witch House—to find the stories of those who called this place home.
