275th Anniversary Celebration Under the Gibbons Elm
The 275th anniversary celebration at Winthrop centers under the town’s ancient elm marking a century and a half of local unity. Notables include the Winthrop Improvement and Historic Association, town officials, clergymen, 60 public school teachers, Civil War veterans, and members of patriotic societies. The event recalls early land grants at Pullen Point neck and the parcels allotted to Willyam Peirce and Edward Gibbon, with reference to Captain William Pierce and Deane Winthrop’s former home nearby.
