TOWNS OF THE BERKSHIRES


ADAMS, MA 01220The town of Adams was the birthplace of famous American suffragette Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906). Until it was incorporated in 1778 and named after patriot Samuel Adams, the town was known as the East Hoosuck Plantation. Present day North Adams was a part of Adams until 1878.

Cool Things in Adams: Topia Arts Center & Café The summit of Mt. Greylock • Quaker Meeting House

ALFORD, MA 01230Settled in 1750, Alford was originally part of Great Barrington, until settlers successfully petitioned for separation in 1769, and Alford, named after Col. John Alford of Charlestown, was incorporated in 1773. During the first half of the 19th century, there were a dozen marble quarries in Alford, but when the railroads bypassed the town, they became unprofitable and closed. Until 1938, Alford had its own baseball team.

ASHLEY FALLS, MA 01222Part of Sheffield, the hamlet of Ashley Falls is noted as the home of Elizabeth “Mumbet” Freeman, one of the first slaves to be set free in Massachusetts and in the then newly formed United States of America.

Cool Things in Ashley Falls:Bartholomew’s Cobble • Colonel John Ashley House

BECKET, MA 01223Becket once prospered with lumber mills, but a flood in 1927 wiped out most of that 19th century industry. The bell in the Congregational Church (1780) was made by Paul Revere. Johnny Appleseed (aka John Chapman 1774-1845) hiked to the top of Jacob’s Ladder around 1801.

Cool Things in Becket: Jacob’s Pillow Dance FestivalYMCA Chimney Corners Camp • Becket Arts Center

CHESHIRE, MA 01225Cheshire was founded in the 1760’s by Baptists from Rhode Island. The town’s reputation for religious diversity continued, and in 1885 there were only 1,537 people in Cheshire but there were four different churches. The manufacture of shoes, cotton fabric and cheese were the mainstays of Cheshire’s 19th century economy. The town also boasted the first factory in western Massachusetts to manufacture cotton making machinery.

Cool Things in Cheshire:Cheese Press Monument at the corner of Church and

School streetsHoosac Lake (aka Cheshire Reservoir), 550 acres

CLARKSBURG, MA 01247In 1866 the Linwood Woolen Company erected a brick mill in Clarksburg to weave cashmere. The town also had three powder mills which produced $36,000 worth of black gunpowder between 1861 and 1869. The E. R. Tinker powder mill exploded in May of 1869 ending production of that product.

Cool Things in Clarksburg: Clarksburg State Forest

The Golden Eagle Restaurant Musterfield House

DALTON, MA 01226The town was named for Tristam Dalton, speaker of the State House of Representatives and the first U.S. Senator from Massachusetts. By 1829, the town was comprised of three paper mills, a gristmill, and five sawmills, all within a mile of the town meeting house. Still the largest employer in town, Crane & Company has produced all the paper on which United States Currency is printed since 1879.

Cool Things in Dalton: Crane Papermaking Museum

FLORIDA, MA 01247“In 1905, when [Florida] was incorporated, there was talk of the United States purchasing the territory of Florida from Spain. The new village among the mountains chose the name of the flat, tropical region of palms and pelicans. Perhaps an overdeveloped sense of humor on the part of the town fathers contributed to the extraordinary choice.”– from The Berkshire Hills, 1939
