In the 17th century, the town was known as “Winthrop.” The name was derived from a small town on the Bay of Massachusetts. There are no records of Winthrop’s first chirivaree, but a few tales tell of a mysterious captain who sailed the town. This enigma led to a tragic ending for both the town and the sailor. In 1832, a group of investors, led by Samuel Leeds, purchased the salt works in Winthrop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The town hall was built in 1856. At the time, there were ninety houses in the town. By the following year, the Methodist Church was no longer adequate to meet the needs of the growing congregation. It was enlarged, and then moved back into the old church after alterations. Fortunately, the Methodist Episcopal Church remains on Prospect Street today. The church is now known as Durham’s Block. Several of the leading citizens of the town have left interesting bits of information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In early November 1833, residents of Winthrop noticed a northeast storm coming. The snow was six inches deep by midnight, and the rain began by dawn. The storm was so severe that a ship, the Lewis, captained by Captain Cromwell, was blown to bits on the Shag Rocks. The entire crew died in the crash. Then, a schooner under Captain Williams crashed on the Winthrop Bar. At eight o’clock, the captain and crew of the “Irene” cut off the masts and slid across the Winthrop Bar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
