Water Power and Mills at Nequasset

The article traces Nequasset pond's water power from early 1650s attempts through a century of mill building, fires, and repairs. It follows Clarke Lake and Arrowsic investments, then successive mills led by Hutchinson, Trescott, Paine, and Stinson families, with dam works, legal disputes, and eventual 1825 dam privilege. It notes Indian wars halted progress, resumed after Queen Anne's war, and a 1841 judgment for pond‑related flowage issues.
