Redemption Rock in Princeton, Massachusetts. On this spot in 1676 #MaryRowlandson of Lancaster was released after 11 weeks captivity during #KingPhillipsWar. There’s an inscription on the rock that details part of the story- although it’s hard to see unless your close-up. Mary’s book on the ordeal becomes a classic of Colonial Literature. . #historicmarkers #colonialhistory #princetonma #massachusetts #centralmassachusetts #redemptionrock (at Redemption Rock) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChQpw11sP0z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Battle of Bunker Hill took place on this day in 1775.

#AlwaysReadthePlaque According to the radio, today is #NationalTelephoneDay which is apparently a thing. In the #Boston area you'll find two #historicmarkers in the development of the telephone- the one shown here in at 69 Kilby Street in Cambridge. . . "On October 9, 1876 the first towing way telephone conversation was carried on for three hours from here in Csmbridgeport #ThomasWatson spoke over the telegraph to #AlexanderGrahamBell at the office of Walworth MFG Co" . . . You'll find a corresponding #historicmarker in front of the JFK Building in Government Center in Boston. . . This building on Kilby Street in Cambridge just outside the #MIT Campus has even more #scientific history, it was also the location where #EdwinLand would develop the instant photograph technology for #Polaroid. . . . . #igersboston #igersbostonfox25 #igersnewengland #historical #history #science #CambridgeMA #telephone #historicfirsts (at Cambridge, Massachusetts)
