The History of Wilbraham, MA

"In the preparation of this historical account of the different events which have happened here, and of the work wrought by our ancestors in the days long past, as well as that which has been accomplished in recent years, I have endeavored to relate as practicable, to complete each account before beginning another. The great amount of time consumed in looking up facts contained in the records of the town, the parishes and the churches, as well as records outside of the town, will account for the time which has passed since the address was delivered."
