About Marblehead, Massachusetts
Marblehead is a town of 20,441 people in Essex County, set on a rocky peninsula on the North Shore of Massachusetts Bay. Joseph Doliber or John Peach (no one agrees which) became its first European settler in 1629, and fishing came almost at once: in 1633 William Wood reported that a full shipload of fish had been dried here the year before. Settlers who mistook the granite ledges for marble gave the town its name. The General Court made it a town on Salem's land in May 1635, took that back within a year, and finally let Marblehead stand on its own in 1649.
The town was at its richest just before the Revolution, and its sailors went to war early. Marblehead men under General John Glover made up the 14th Continental Regiment, one of the army's few integrated regiments. They helped the army slip away after the Battle of Long Island and rowed Washington across the Delaware for his attack on Trenton. The cost at home was heavy, with 459 widows and 865 orphaned children left in a town of fewer than 5,000 people. Even so, the 1790 census ranked it the tenth-largest place in the country.
“Our ancestors came not here for religion. Their main end was to catch fish!”
- The great fire of 1877Around 1825 Ebenezer Martin began the shoe trade on Darling Street, peddling shoes from a cart; later hundreds of shoemakers here worked for Lynn firms, then for big local factories. At half past one in the morning on June 25, 1877, a barn fire behind the Marblehead Hotel jumped from factory to factory. A third rose again within three months, the rest later.
- A barrel maker's giftWhen barrel maker and trader Benjamin Abbot died in 1872, he left his birthplace $103,000, which built Abbot Hall. Lord & Fuller designed the Romanesque building, dedicated December 12, 1877, and it still serves as the town hall. It holds Archibald Willard's The Spirit of '76 and the 1684 deed from Nanepashemet's heirs. On September 8, 1882, Capt. Benjamin Pitman playfully captured President Chester A. Arthur for the town, and 1,500 people cheered him in the hall.
- Old Ironsides takes shelterGale's Head, at the mouth of the harbor, was first fortified in 1644, and a sturdier fort followed in 1742. Soldiers rebuilt it for the Revolution and twice more, in 1794 and 1809. On April 3, 1814, USS Constitution ran in under its guns to escape two British frigates. The garrison had little powder, but it ran out its guns as if ready for battle, and the British sailed off. Fort Sewall joined the National Register in 1975.
- The Great Gale of 1846In 1837 the town sent 98 fishing vessels to sea, 95 of them over 50 tons, many bound for the Grand Banks of Newfoundland. On September 19, 1846, a gale there sank 11 Marblehead vessels and damaged others, and 65 men and boys never came home. The loss began the long decline of the town's fishing industry, and William Thompson Bartoll painted the storm around 1850.
- The first Marine aviatorThe Burgess & Curtis factory in Marblehead was the country's first licensed aircraft maker, and William Starling Burgess designed and tested most of its planes. On August 20, 1912, Alfred Austell Cunningham flew a Burgess Model H seaplane off Marblehead Harbor and became the first Marine aviator. His flight marked the beginning of Marine Corps Aviation.
