Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Blackstone Family: Being Sketches, Biographical and Genealogical of William Blackstone, and His Descendants Who was William Blackstone? The answer is meagre, but highly interesting to us, indwellers here. He was the first white man who made this peninsula his home, and as we believe, about 224 years ago. He preceded Isaac Johnson and the company from Charlestown, in his occupancy, five or six years. Referring to Edward Johnson´s "Wonder Working Providence," for the first part, and to the early records of Charlestown, for the last part of the statement, Prince says, I. 241 - "On the South side of Charles River Mouth, on a Point of Land called Blaxton´s point, lives Mr. Blaxton: where He only has a Cottage." Edward Johnson wrote of what he saw - of events which were passing before him. His history extends "from the yeere 1628 to the yeere 1652." I like the very words of an old historian: Johnson says, chapter 17 - "One (on) the South side of the River, on a Point of Land called Blaxton´s point, planted Mr. William Blaxton."
