Book Description
Excerpt from Town Records of Manchester: From the Earliest Grants of Land, 1636, When a Portion of Salem Until 1736, as Contained in the Town Records of Salem, Second and Third Book of Records of the Town of Manchester At the Annual Town Meeting held March 19, 1889, the Town Clerk was authorized to copy and cause to be printed the early records of the Town. A committee of three was also appointed to cooperate with him in this work. The earliest mention of the settlement of Manchester is to be found in the Salem Records when grants of land were made from time to time as the applications received favorable action. It was thought best to incorporate these grants in this book as showing who were the earliest settlers. Our next source of information is what is known as the Second Book. This contains probalily a portion of the first; as in the Third Book, compiled by Dr. E. W. Leach in 1836, it will be noticed that copies have been made of former grants and reference is made to the First Book. It seems reasonable to suppose that some one had collected scattered leaves and bound them together. There is a gap, however, between 1645 and 1658 we have no means of supplying. A correct transcript has been made of this book, and although nearly transparent from many years wear and portions of several pages missing yet sufficient remains to give a fairly correct idea of the original meaning. The dash indicates the words that are gone. The Third Book, while in the main easily read, has several pages almost illegible. The following extracts were taken from a communication by Wm. P. Upham written as an introductory to the Salem Records and are of interest as showing town government in its infancy. "The interest which attaches to these ancient manuscript records is heightened when we consider how few were the 'plantations' then existing in the Massachusetts colony. In fact, they date back to the very time when towns, as such, came into existence. On the 3d of September, 1634, the General Court appointed a Committee, consisting of nine members, to set out the bounds of towns.
