How the name was read

Each atlas was set in type by a different hand and scanned decades later, so the same establishment comes back spelled differently. Every reading below was produced by the recogniser from the sheets; none was corrected or invented. They are published so a search for any of them finds this page.

Named in the 1889 county history

The history of Worcester County was published 9 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

During the past twenty years the town has maintained a high school. The early terms were held in the basement of the armory and in the school-houses in the central village. Commencing with the inauguration of Cushing Academy in 1875, a department of that well-ordered institution has given the town a permanent and excellent high school, and for its support an annual appropriation is made.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Webster, Massachusetts, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
