United States Geography in the Early Republic - MASSACHUSETTS Massachusetts Towns and Cities: Amesbury Just north of the Merrimack River , in Essex County , at the far north of Massachusetts. Amhurst In Hampshire County, about 7 miles northeast of Northhampton . Birthplace of Silas Wright , prominent member of the Albany Regency in NY from the 1820s to the 1840s. Amhurst College was founded there in 1821 and incorporated in 1825. Andover Small town around 25 miles north of Boston, in western Essex County , where a religiously conservative school was established in reaction against the liberalization of Harvard (which became a Unitarian institution early in the 19th century). Attleborough Located a few miles SE of the NE corner of Rhode Island. Birthplace of Jonathan and Virgil Maxcy Beverly In Essex County , a couple of miles north of Salem Boston It it difficult, and will take quite some time, to do justice to Boston, of course. In the early 1800s, it was the intellectual capital of the U.S. It has one of the finest harbors on the east coast. Originally, it was almost an island, connected to the mainland by "Boston neck", a strip just wide enough for one road (one of the reasons it could hold out so long in its rebellion against the English). Over the years, the neck was widened until it became wider than the "head" attached to it. Part of this filling-in process created the Back Bay. See Whitehill, Boston, A Topographical History

31. Wickham, Massachusetts - Geography (28-Oct-1995) Wickham, massachusetts geography. Ikibomot High School is locatedin the town of Wickham, massachusetts. Wickham is an old seaport http://www.apricot.com/CooperativeFictions/Ikibomot/wickhamgeography.html

Wickham, Massachusetts - Geography Ikibomot High School is located in the town of Wickham, Massachusetts. Wickham is an old seaport town on Massachusetts Bay, about thirty miles from Boston. The town sits on Wickham Point, a small peninsula which juts out into the bay for a couple of miles on a roughly northwest- southeast axis. On the southeastern tip of Wickham Point sits the "Old Town", a historic seaport dating back to the Puritan colonial times. This is a designated historic district and gets some tourist traffic visiting the old waterfront area. The school is in the middle of the peninsula. Its campus is not on the waterfront, although the school property includes a slice of land extending to the northern shore. There is a private beach within easy walking distance of campus, reached by a nature trail that winds through pine woods and beach scrub. On the northwestern end of the Point, where it meets the mainland, are the Ikibomot Corporate Research Labs. This facility occupies a campus larger than that of the school, and employs several thousand people. There is a train station near the main plant entrance, with regular commuter service south to Boston and north to the suburbs. To the west of the Point, across the tracks from the Ikibomot facility, is the "New Town": the houses built for new Ikibomot employees and the new shops and services required by the influx of population. This is a thoroughly modern suburban community.

Travel to the United States The Regions of the United States The States, Districts and Territories of the United States State Flag State Seal Massachusetts. American FactFinder (U.S. Census) Massachusetts, the "Colony State" "Bay State" Abbreviation: MA The colony was named after a local Indian tribe whose name means "a large hill place." Massachusetts was one of the six New England states, and one of the first 13 states in the Union (it entered in 1788). The Pilgrims established their settlement at Plymouth in 1620, arriving on the "Mayflower". They were Puritans, who established the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The birthplace of many of the ideals of the American Revolution, Massachusetts attracted people who believed in self-government. Massachusetts is the sixth smallest state of the United States but it stands among the leaders in many fields. Universities in and around Boston help make the area one of the world's great cultural, educational, medical and research centers. Historic sites date back to the Pilgrims, to colonial witchcraft trials, and to the Revolutionary War. Skiing brings many visitors to the Berkshire Hills and to other parts of the state. The Atlantic Ocean and many lakes and rivers also attract water sports enthusiasts.

Travel to the United States The Regions of the United States New England The Mid-Atlantic The South The Midwest ... The West Americans often speak of their country as one of several large regions. These regions are cultural units rather than governmental units formed by history and geography and shaped by the economics, literature and folkways that all the parts of a region share. What makes one region different from another? A region's multicultural heritage as well as distinct demographic characteristics like age and occupation also make regions different and special. Within several regions, language is used differently and there are strong dialects. There are also differences in outlook and attitude based on geography. E-Texts Megalopolis The Bypassed East New England Connecticut Maine Massachusetts New Hampshir ... Vermont New England has played a dominant role in American history. Until well into the 19th century, New England was the country's cultural and economic center. The earliest European settlers of New England were English Protestants who came in search of religious liberty. They gave the region its distinctive political format town meetings (an outgrowth of meetings held by church elders) in which citizens gathered to discuss issues of the day. Town meetings still function in many New England communities today and have been revived as a form of dialogue in the national political arena. New England is also important for the cultural contribution it has made to the nation. The critic Van Wyck Brooks called the creation of a distinctive American literature, in the first half of the 19th century, "the flowering of New England." Education is another of the region's strongest legacies. The cluster of top-ranking universities and colleges in
