Book excerpt: Excerpt from Towns of New England and Old England, Ireland and Scotland, Vol. 1: Connecting Links Between Cities and Towns of New England and Those of the Same Name in England, Ireland and Scotland; Containing Narratives, Descriptions, and Many Views, Some Done From Old Prints New England but by most of the other States, and also by England, Holland and doubtless other countries. We therefore believe this to be an appropriate year to issue this pamphlet treating of the connecting links between New England and Old England, including most of the cities and towns named after the places in England, Ireland and Scotland, from the beginning of the first settlement at Plymouth, Massachusetts. It is our belief that there are many people in New England who do not know who were the early settlers of their own cities or towns, or of other places in the New England States. We think, too, there may be many who do not know how or why their own or other New England communities have been given their present names, and we also believe few people realize the close relationship. And the many links between many of our New England _cities and towns and the mother cities and towns of the. Old Country.
