An account from the chapter on Stoneham town, in the words of 1908.

The county history of 1908 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for the smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 90 fires within 5 miles of Haywardville between 2004 and 2020, burning about 107 acres in total. None started naturally. 29 were recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Arlington
• Arlington Heights
• Belmont
• Brattle
• Central Square
• Countryside

Every fire recorded in Middlesex County

Museums hold 1,485 specimens collected within 10 miles of Haywardville between 1898 and 1975: 654 Animalia, 463 Plantae, 319 Fungi, 17 Bacteria, 15 Protozoa, 9 Chromista, 8 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by ?, A B Seymour, A B. Proper and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
