Vital Records of East Bridgewater, Mass.

By: New England Historic Genealogical Society, Publisher

Excerpt from the text:The Town of East Bridgewater, Plymouth County, was established June 14, 1823, from a part of Bridgewater. February 23, 1838, bounds between East Bridgewater and Bridgewater were established. March 20, 1846, bounds between East Bridgewater and Bridgewater were established and a part of each town was annexed to the other town. April 11, 1857, a part of Halifax was annexed and bounds were established. March 4, 1875, a part was included in the new town of South Abington (Whitman). April 24, 1875, a part was annexed to Brockton. The date of the establishment of East Bridgewater is subsequent to the date of the earliest census in which population appears. This is due, probably, to the fact that the territory in question was well defined and recognized in census enumerations prior to the date of its formal incorporation as a district or town.
