To me, and I doubt not to many of my generation, it was a great privilege to have known, for so long a period, my grandfather, William Putnam Endicott; my grandmother, Mrs. George Peabody; and my great-aunts, Mrs. Augustus Perry and Mrs. Francis Peabody. As I think of them I seem to see in my mind's eye people of dignity of character; of general cultivation; of extreme reticence; and ofgreat personal charm and beauty. They lived in a small community and all their interests were of necessity more or less centered around their homes. I am sure they represented what was best in the life of New England and set high ideals for those among whom they lived.

Preface In 1979, the Annual Town Meeting created the 350th Anniversary Celebration Committee, charged with designing an appropriate celebration of Watertown’s 350th birthday. The names of the members of the Committee are printed elsewhere in this booklet. The Committee has planned a Homecoming Ball, a mammoth parade, regattas, a picnic, and a party honoring the descendants of the town’s founders to take place at the Gore Estate during the anniversary year. During the month of June, 1980, the Selectmen will proclaim a month of official celebration in which everyone can participate. School, libraries, churches, town organization, civic groups, and local businesses will all share in some phase of the festivities. The Committee, desiring some permanent record of this important date in Watertown’s history to stand for future generations, asked Charles Burke, well-known local historian and long-time trustee of the Watertown Free Public Library, to write a short history of the Town. Watertown, the first inland town to be settled in Massachusetts, sent many of its sons and daughters forth to found other cities and towns. Watertown thus became known as “ The Mother Town.” We are proud of her history. The Committee thanks Charles Burke for his contribution to our 350th Anniversary Celebration, and hopes that Watertown’s sons and daughters enjoy reading this account of the growth and development of their home town.

Newsletter Endicott Heritage Trail © This News is being brought to you in an effort along with the EFA, Inc. web site to keep you informed of activities of the Endecott-Endicott Family Association, Inc. We would appreciate your feedback. Your comments and suggestions are most welcome. We also welcome your contributions of Endicott research material. Please review the Newsletter Guidelines on the EFA, Inc. web site and in this issue (pgs. 4-5) prior to your submission for publication. Ancestors spotlight The Endicott Contribution in the War of 1812 It is my hope that all of you will take the time to read this short synopsis of the Endicott family and its contributions during the War of 1812. As Gordon has been reporting, our theme at the 2008 Reunion in New Harmony, Indiana will be our family connections with the War of 1812, and we will be dedicating a memorial stone honoring those who participated during the War at the Poseyville cemetery – the same location where we dedicated the Thomas Endicott (1737-1831) monument in 2006. I hope that this will spur your interest in coming this year. The War of 1812 is not very well known and often passed over in studies of American history. It was our second war with Great Britain who, among other things, burned the White House. In recent years, a renovation went on at the White House and when they removed the seventeen layers of paint, the residue of smoke and suet were still there.

Sanford, Jr. MILITARY BACKGROUND IN THE OLD WORLD In his book, ―John Winthrop: America‘s Forgotten Founding Father,‖ the author, Francis J. Bremer, asserts the following. ―Historians have agreed that ENDECOTT had some European military experience, and the nature of the (Pequot) campaign suggests that he may have fought in England‘s Irish Wars.‖ Henry VIII was declared King of Ireland in 1530 and the next sixty years was spent in repressing the residents of that land. This became more difficult during the Anglo-Spanish War (1585-1604) that was started by the English when they intruded into Spanish Netherlands that led to memorable sea battles which included the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. During the war, the Spanish meddled in the affairs of Ireland and the English were in conflict with them until the signing of the treaty in 1604 that ended English actions in 1 the Spanish Netherlands and Spain‘s support for dissidents in Ireland.
