Synopsis

This book presents a meticulous transcription of Roxbury's land records, tracing landownership, geographical boundaries, and economic development from the town's inception to the late 17th century. As the third volume in a series of published records from Boston's suburban towns, this book adds to a rich body of scholarship on early New England life. The author's detailed annotations provide context for the original documents and offer insight into the legal and social practices of the time. This volume is a valuable resource for historians, genealogists, and anyone interested in early American history and land-use patterns.
