About Cranston, Rhode Island

Cranston is a city of 82,934 people in Providence County, just south of Providence, and the 2020 census made it the second-largest city in Rhode Island. Its land was part of the Pawtuxet Purchase, which Roger Williams made from the Narragansett in 1638. William Arnold was the first settler, and William Harris, Zachariah Rhodes and William Carpenter soon followed him.

Stephen Arnold put up a gristmill at Pawtuxet Falls and cut a road, today's Broad Street, out to the Pequot Trail toward Connecticut. For decades settlers argued over what to call a town of their own, until the General Assembly carved the Town of Cranston out of Providence, north of the Pawtuxet River, in 1754. Its namesake was either Governor Samuel Cranston, the longest-serving governor of Rhode Island, or his grandson Thomas, then speaker of the state House.

  • The Gaspee burned in 1772In 1772 Rhode Island patriots attacked the British revenue schooner Gaspee at Pawtuxet Village, the busy harbor Cranston shares with Warwick, and set it on fire. Since 1965 the two communities have remembered that night every June with Gaspee Days. The parade comes on the second Saturday of the month, and the burning is acted out again at Pawtuxet Park.
  • A mill village at PawtuxetIn the 1800s the Rhodes textile firm made the old port into a mill village. Later, crowds rode the trolley out from Providence to dance at the Rhodes-on-the-Pawtuxet hall.
  • Two governors, one houseThe Sprague family's mansion on Cranston Street went up around 1790 and housed three generations. Two governors were born there, William Sprague III and later his nephew, William Sprague IV, and in 1808 the family founded the Sprague Print Works, later Cranston Print Works. William Sprague IV took part in the first battle of Bull Run while serving as governor. Amasa Sprague enlarged the house in 1864.
  • A stone-ender from 1677Captain Arthur Fenner built a stone-ender farmhouse in 1677 for his son Thomas. The Thomas Fenner House is said to be the oldest house still standing in the old Providence Plantations portion of Rhode Island.
  • May Breakfast since 1865Oak Lawn, in southwest Cranston, went by Searle's Corner until 1872. In 1865 members of the Oak Lawn Baptist Church served a breakfast to raise money for local Civil War veterans, and that meal is said to be where the New England May Breakfast tradition began.
