101 Things To Know About Brimfield

By: Michael DeFalco

101 Things To Know About Brimfield highlights the people, places, and events that have helped shape Brimfield's almost 300-year history. Many of the topics are well known, such as the Flea Market, Hitchcock Academy, General William Eaton and the First Congregational Church but most are little known or have been obscured by the mists of time. For instance, few people know that Brimfield has what may be the only horse cemetery in Massachusetts or that a former resident, Thomas Proctor Howard was part of the Lewis and Clark Expedition or that another resident, Tabitha Moffat Brown was designated the “Mother of Oregon” by that state’s legislature. The book is broken into six chapters – People, Places, Events, Arts& Literature, Military Monuments and Artifacts, and Miscellany and contains many old photos from the collections housed in the Brimfield Library.
