Lemuel Cook (b. 1759 – d. 1866) 📍Litchfield, Connecticut Cook was one of the last verified surviving veterans of the American Revolutionary War. He enlisted in the Continental Army around age 16 and served as a private in the 2nd Continental Light Dragoons. He fought at the Battle of Brandywine, was wounded several times, and was present at the Siege of Yorktown when British General Cornwallis surrendered in 1781. He received an honorable discharge in 1784. After the war, Cook married, raised a large family, and worked as a farmer, eventually settling in Clarendon, New York. Photographed in 1864 at age 105 for the book The Last Men of the Revolution, he lived to see both the start and...

The Bedford Flag 📍Bedford, Massachusetts The Bedford Flag is the oldest complete surviving flag in the United States. It is a crimson silk cavalry standard painted with a silver-armored arm emerging from clouds and grasping a sword, plus a gold ribbon bearing the Latin motto Vince Aut Morire (“Conquer or Die”). Created in the early 1700s for a local Massachusetts Bay cavalry troop, it stayed with the Page family for generations. Family tradition holds that Minuteman Nathaniel Page carried it to the Concord Bridge on April 19, 1775. In 1885 Cyrus Page donated it to Bedford. It is now displayed at the Bedford Free Public Library. @HistoricalNE

Brookfield Indian Attack July 27, 1693 📍Brookfield, Massachusetts During King William’s War, a band of about forty savages raided outlying farms in Brookfield (also known as Quabaug), Massachusetts. After lying in ambush for several days and avoiding the small local garrison, they attacked the families of Joseph Wolcott, Joseph Mason, and the Lawrences. Thomas Lawrence, Joseph Mason, and his eldest son, Mrs. Joseph Wolcott and her two young children were killed; others, including Daniel Lawrence and Mrs. Mason, with her infant (who was later killed), were taken captive. Joseph Wolcott escaped with one child to raise the alarm, and a pursuit party from Springfield later recovered some of th...

Pope Night November 5th (Pope’s Night or Pope’s Day) was an anti-Catholic holiday observed primarily by working-class Protestants in colonial New England—especially in seaport towns like Boston. It evolved from England’s Guy Fawkes Night, which marked the failure of the 1605 Gunpowder Plot. Celebrations featured noisy processions in which large, often grotesque effigies of the Pope, the Devil, and sometimes the Stuart Pretender or other hated figures were paraded through the streets on decorated carts or platforms. In Boston, rival gangs from the North End and South End staged competing parades, collected money from householders, then clashed in street fights; the victors claimed the loser...

The Great Patent Establishment of New England 🏴 November 3, 1620 The Great Patent, issued by King James I on November 3, 1620, created the Council for New England and granted it authority over a vast territory from 40° to 48° north latitude, stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific. It officially named the region “New England,” empowered the Council to establish colonies, grant land, and govern the area, and provided the legal foundation for English settlement there, including the later patents that legitimized the Pilgrims’ Plymouth Colony. @HistoricalNE

September 20, 1974) 📍Boston, Massachusetts Members of the National Socialist White People's Party dressed as Nazi storm troopers stop in downtown Boston to plan their activities, which they say are geared to oppose Boston's efforts at school integration. Police later said they escorted the group out of town for the second time. @HistoricalNE

Old Stone Church 📍West Boylston, Massachusetts Built in 1891 on the site of its predecessor—the second Baptist Society house of worship, dedicated December 6, 1832—after a fire on May 2, 1890, destroyed both that church and the neighboring Saint Anthony’s Roman Catholic Church. Located just east of the confluence of the Quinapoxet and Stillwater Rivers (which form the southern branch of the Nashua River), the new stone church was scheduled for dedication on March 17, 1892, but an interior fire postponed the ceremony until May 19. From 1896 to 1905 the construction of the Wachusett Reservoir destroyed the town’s mills and farms; in June 1897 the Metropolitan Water Board paid the Baptist Soc...

Louis Agassiz b. 1807– d.1873 📍Cambridge, Massachusetts Agassiz was a Swiss-born naturalist, geologist, and biologist. In 1848 he moved to Cambridge to take up his professorship at Harvard University. He rented a house on Oxford Street near the campus. He became a professor of zoology and geology at Harvard University, where he founded the Museum of Comparative Zoology. Renowned for his work on fossil fishes and for popularizing the concept of the Ice Age, he was also a prominent advocate of polygenism—the view that human races were separately created as distinct species rather than sharing a common origin. He ranked White people as superior, claimed Black people were anatomically and i...

Apple Season In New England New England has a rich tradition of apple cultivation dating back to the colonial period. Apples were among the first fruits planted by European settlers, who brought various varieties from Europe. The region’s climate and soil proved ideal for orchards, making it known for diverse apple-growing practices. This legacy continues today, with orchards intertwined with local culture, featuring festivals, cider production, and community gatherings that celebrate the harvest. Apple picking season begins in late summer and peaks in the fall, drawing families and tourists to orchards across the region. Popular activities include picking apples, enjoying hayrides, and ta...
