Welcome to Georgetown and Groveland

Founded as part of Rowley in 1639, Georgetown has long been proud to stand alone as an independent, self-sufcient town with a unique history. Early settlers found rich pasture land in the area of Penn Brook, near Elm Street and Union Cemetery. Homes and a village quickly sprang up along this corridor. It became known as the West Parish of Rowley, but by 1838, the village had created its own identity and was witnessing a population boom. Residents successfully petitioned to split off as a separate town. By then, industry was beginning to thrive in the onceagricultural town, with more than a dozen mills producing a variety of products. And, like other villages in the area, shoemaking became a lucrative trade that employed many people in several factories around town, as well as some who built small shoe shops in their yards. Georgetowns gradual growth saw another boom in the mid-1800s, when a rail line was laid through the town and

Georgetown became a stop on the new mass-transit system. The old line has long since been abandoned, but its route can be seen clearly and is being considered as the path of a rail trail that will link Georgetown to Newburyport. Groveland wasincorporated 1850, after spending the 17th and 18th centuries attached to Rowley and Bradford. The town changed during the 20th century, moving from a shoe industry and textile manufacturing community into a residential town. During the 1960s, the most dramatic changes occurred as numerous housingdevelopments were built. Groveland has an open Town Meeting form of government and residents take pride in their schools: the Dr. Elmer Bagnall Elementary School and Pentucket Regional Middle and High Schools. The town offers baseball and soccer elds, basketball courts, picnic areas and parks, and boating facilities on the Merrimack River all of which are very popular with adults and children alike.

GOODRICH MASSACRE SITE On Oct. 23, 1692, the only Indian raid in what is now Georgetown occurred. Benjamin Goodrich, his wife and two daughters were killed, and a third daughter was taken captive. A sign marks the site. ERIE 4 ENGINE Erie 4 fire company, formed in 1854, claims to be the oldest private fire brigade in the nation. Its name derives from its pump engine, a used Hunneman Hand Tub that was purchased by the men of the company. The name Erie No. 3 was painted on the hand tub, and it was decided to adopt the name, and as Erie was the fourth owner, to call both the hand tub and the association the Erie No. 4. The hand tub is on display next to the fire station, in a building with a large glass wall that allows the engine to be viewed at all times of the day and night. Erie 4 is a privately owned, nonprot corporation and serves Georgetown as one of its two re engine companies. Its upstairs hall is available for rentals. OLD NANCY A Revolutionary War cannon said to have been salvaged from the British brig Nancy, which was captured by the fledgling American Navy on Nov. 29, 1775, off Gloucester. The Nancys cargo, consisting of 2,000 muskets, 100,000 flints, 30,000 round shots, 30 tons of musket shot, and a 13-inch brass mortar was a huge boost to the American Army. The authenticity of the cannon has caused controversy over the years, as Rowley claims to also possess the original Old Nancy cannon.

BROCKLEBANK MUSEUM, GEORGETOWN HISTORICAL SOCIETY 108 East Main Street Open: every Sunday from 2 to 5 p.m., July through Columbus Day; $5 for adults/$3 for seniors and students The historical societys property contains several buildings, chief among them the Brocklebank-Nelson-Beecher house, believed to have been built in the late 1600s. The land on which the house stands was granted in 1661 to Samuel Brocklebank, a surveyor who had come from England to Rowley as a child in 1638. The house remained in the Brocklebank family until 1754, when it was acquired by Dudley Tyler for use as a tavern. The museum house contains numerous artifacts related to Georgetowns history, including the Haunted Meal Chest, which gained its unearthly reputation from its alleged ghostly movement whenever a servant girls dress brushed against it. The phenomenon lasted only a few weeks but made a lasting impression on all who witnessed it. Visitors can look down through a viewing panel to the cellar where a secret slave hole was built during the days of the Underground Railroad. This room is believed to have been constructed by the Rev. Charles Beecher who was a fervent abolitionist. Also on display is an original slave collar similar to those worn by captured runaway slaves.
