The name Medford is thought to have come from "the ford by the meadow" or "Meadford" thus commemorating the importance of the fordable part of the Mystic River located just west of present-day Medford Square. The original area of Medford was owned by Mathew Cradock, the first Governor of the Massachusetts colonies. Although Cradock never saw it, he employed men to develop his land into a plantation. After his death, the plantation passed to his heirs and then was sold en masse in 1652 to Edward Collins. The area was designated a "peculiar" which signified that it was private property and not a properly incorporated town. Collins began selling pieces of land to others after 1656. In 1684, Medford was granted the right to raise its own money by the General Court. In 1892, Medford became incorporated as a city.
Newburyport (18,000) is a vibrant coastal community rich in natural beauty as well as gracious Federalist architecture built with the whaling and clipper ship fortunes of this prolific 19th century seaport. The city is very proud of its history. The first tea party in opposition to England`s tax on tea was held in Newburyport, well before the more famous one in Boston. We are pleased to be the birthplace of the United States Coast Guard. The first ship commissioned for the Coast Guard, the frigate Massachusetts, was built in the City. Protective of its heritage, the City launched a massive redevelopment scheme in the early 1960s, using state and federal funds to reclaim its historic neighborhoods of granite, brick and cobblestones and provide up-to-date infrastructure such as water and sewer renovations.
The Town is eight miles long, two miles wide at its South end and three miles wide at the North end with an area of 18.55 square miles. It is surrounded by seven Massachusetts towns and Woonsocket, Rhode Island to its South end.
