    Early Starrs in Kent &New England

    **************************** Early Starrs in Kent &New England **************************** by HOSEA STARR BALLOU * Honorary Governor of THE SOCIETY OF COLONIAL WARS IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS President Emeritus of THE STARR FAMILY ASSOCIATION Member of THE BUNKER HILL MONUMENT ASSOCIATION THE UNIVERSALIST HISTORICAL SOCIETY THE NEW ENGLAND HISTORIC GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY **************************** BOSTON STARR FAMILY ASSOCIATION 1944 Arranged and Edited by WILLIAM CARROLL HILL Editor and Historian The New England Historic Genealogical Society 9 Ashburton Place, Boston, Mass. THE RUMFORD PRESS CONCORD, NEW HAMPSHIRE PRINTED IN THE U. S. A. PREFACE "Early Starrs in Kent and New England" is the compilation of a series of articles on the forbears of the Starr family in this country and England prepared for and published in The New England His­ torical and Genealogical Register between the years 1935 and 1944. They were prepared by Hosea Starr Ballou of Brookline, Mass., who had spent many years in this country and abroad in genealogical research. Having previously published the "Life of Hosea Ballou II," "Wm. Blaxton, The First Bostonian" and "The Harvard Yard Before Dunster", Mr. Ballou spent much of the last decade of his life in a study and analysis of the data on the Starr Family. Not having in mind a formal history of the family, Mr. Ballou contributed frequently to The Register of such material as he had at hand at the time, with the result that the articles, while containing a wonderful amount of new and most valuable information, pre­ sented no chronological sequence, being classified in general as "Dr. Thomas Starr in the Pequot War", although the text embraced far more than this narrative.

    Dedham, MA Town Manager

    Dedham, MA Town Manager Community & Position Profile The Community The Town of Dedham, Massachusetts, is a vibrant and inclusive community of approximately 25,400 residents. Dedham has a strong economic base and involved citizenry as well as a tradition of highly responsive government service and strong financial management. The Town is seeking an experienced management professional with strong municipal and/or business knowledge as well as exceptional leadership and communication skills to serve as its next Town Manager. He or she should strive to have a visible presence in the community, attending events and become actively engaged with citizens. History: Dedham has a rich and fascinating history. Settled in 1635 after the General Court issued orders for the establishment of two inland towns to relieve population pressures within existing settlements, Dedham was incorporated in 1636. The Town’s first mill was built in 1642 where townspeople would grind their own corn with power generated from the Charles River. During the next hundred years other mills were built, including one for leather and one used to manufacture paper. Eventually there were industrial mills for manufacturing cotton, wool, wire, carpets, cloth, nails, and stamped coins. These industries sparked a housing boom for mill workers along with churches, shops, and other businesses that residents demanded. Dedham became the county seat of Norfolk County in 1793. Throughout the following two centuries, Dedham continued to grow and prosper. Today, there are hundreds of businesses located in Dedham, employing more than 15,000 workers. Dedham has recognized three districts in Town for their historic and architectural significance: Franklin Square-Court Street District, also known as the Dedham Village Historic District; Connecticut Corner District; and Federal Hill District.
