A View of the Centre Common of Framingham

Captain Daniel Bell, 1808

2003.208

In 1808, Framingham was over a century old, but its bustling Centre Common was relatively new. The Common was established around Framingham’s second meeting house, which was moved from present-day Buckminster Square in the 1730s. The area around the meeting house remained largely undeveloped until after the Revolutionary War. Still, most New England town commons remained wooded and unkempt until the mid-19th century, putting Framingham Centre ahead of its time. This was because of its critical location halfway between Boston and Worcester on the new Worcester Turnpike, which turned the wooded outpost into a bustling boom town just as the new century began.

It is this version of the Centre Common that was captured in watercolor by Captain Daniel Bell in 1808. The incredible level of detail in this painting gives us a unique window into the Common of the past, including many buildings which no longer stand. It is one of the most copied images in the FHC collection, with over ten replications in various mediums.

Framingham’s Pick

This piece of folk art is to me the quintessential image of Framingham history.

Curator's Statement

It is likely that many people viewing this exhibit know the “Eames Massacre” (if they know it at all) as an unprovoked act of violence, but this perception is skewed, one-sided, and unfair. What has been cast as a random, brutal attack was in reality a wartime encounter between two groups of people who had known, lived with, and interacted with each other many times over the course of a decade. So how did this encounter between neighbors become deadly? And how many victims did this event really claim?

In retelling this story now, it is not my aim to condone violence or excuse murder. Rather, it is to closely examine the circumstances that surround it, and to cast light on the pieces of the story that have remained in the dark. This is an examination of the circumstances that provoke violence, the ways in which violence begets more violence, and the consequences that reverberate into modern Framingham and beyond.

The goal of this exhibit is not just to teach; it is to transport. Given how the landscape has been altered in the past 350 years, it is impossible to recreate the Framingham of the 17th century. Still, I hope the combination of objects, documents, and original artwork gives you a sense of the world Netus and Thomas Eames inhabited.

I’d like to extend my sincerest thanks to Mary McNeil, for her contributions to this exhibition, to Annie Murphy and Laura Rankin for their editing eyes, and  Alison Simmons, Maria Turner, and the Natick Nipmuc for their help at many points along the way, including offering their crucial perspective on this story and it’s echoes into the present. Thanks also to the Massachusetts State Archives and Middlesex Deeds for granting access to their collections for research and use in this exhibition.

Land Encroachment Method 1:
Spoil the Land

The English set their livestock free to graze and root unchecked, destroying Native planting grounds and other cultivated ecosystems in the process. When Native people protested, settlers insisted that Native villages be fenced to keep the livestock out. This practice made desirable land unusable for Native people while forcing them to confine their surviving spaces within fencing, leaving adjacent lands “free” to be claimed. This demonstrates that even as the English claimed New England was wilderness, they understood how important cultivation of the land was to Native subsistence.

Land Encroachment Method 3:
Assimilate and Consolidate

The precursor to the modern Indian Reservation can be found in 17th century Praying Towns, English-style villages established by Reverend John Eliot for the conversion of local Algonquian groups, including the Nipmuc, to Christianity. Establishing these spaces allowed the English to supplant Native culture with their own and consolidate large groups of Indigenous populations within borders that the English defined themselves. The Native people who inhabited these towns were referred to as “Praying Indians.”

The land that is now Framingham had many of these Towns nearby: Natick, Magunkaquog (Ashland), Hassanamesit (Grafton), and Okommakamesit (Marlborough).

Land Encroachment Method 2: Force Debt

As soon as the English obtained any kind of written agreement from Native people, they interpreted it as Native subservience and acceptance of the English legal system. Native participants, for their part, agreed to alliances often with little understanding that this was the case.

After obtaining these agreements, English settlers forced allied Native individuals into debt, often through fraudulent means such as false imprisonment. These debts were imposed with full knowledge that the Indigenous population rarely kept English money, thus forcing them to pay in an equivalent value of land.

Captain Tom Wuttasacomponum
(ca. 1625-1676)

Captain Tom, also known as “Tom Wutasakompanin,” “Wuttusacomponum” or “Wutasakompanin,” was a Nipmuc leader who probably resided at one (or both) of the “new” Praying Villages of Pakachoag or Webquassit before moving to Hassanamesit by 1674. While Annaweekin was considered the principle “ruler” of Hassanamesit, Captain Tom probably held some leadership role at Hassanamesit, and was held in high esteem by Daniel Gookin.  During King Philip’s War, Captain Tom traveled to Menimesit with his Nipmuc kin instead of being removed to Deer Island; it is unclear whether he went by choice or was forced.  Wuttusacomponum was captured by English scouts, tried for his alleged participation in attacks on settlers at Sudbury and Medfied, and hung in June of 1676.  To his death, Captain Tom swore his innocence.

Metacomet (1638-1676)

Metacomet, or King Philip, was the head sachem of the Wampanoag Confederacy and the namesake of King Philip’s War.  The son of Massasoit, the sachem who entered into an early alliance with Plymouth settlers, Metacomet succeeded his father and his brother, Wamsutta, after their respective deaths.  While Metacomet initially sought to maintain good relationships with settlers, deeding them land and even adopting the English name “Philip,” such “peace” was threatened by increasing settler dispossession and undermining of Wampanoag sovereignty. Shortly after settlers accused Metacomet of ordering the murder of John Sassamon, a Massachusett man who was often an interpreter for English land deals, King Philip’s War began. 

 

In 1676, Metacomet was killed in a swamp near his home village of Montaup (today often referred to as “Mount Hope” or Bristol, Rhode Island).  After his murder, Metacomet’s head was displayed on a pike in Plymouth’s town center for decades, and his wife and son were captured and sold into slavery.

Menimesit

Menimesit (modern Brookfield) was a stronghold and refuge place for Nipmuc people, and later their Wampanoag and Narragansett allies, during King Philip’s War.  Its name refers both to the river (today often called the Ware River), and the marshy lands and islands in and around the river.  There were three separate towns in Menimesit, and Mary Rowlandson was taken to one of them during the war.

Hassanamesit

Hassanamesit (Modern Grafton) was a Praying Village that was established in 1654; the name translates to “place of small stones.”  Comprised of 8000 acres of land, it was near the Old Connecticut Path and about 2 miles east of the “Nipmuck River” (today often called the Blackstone River). Hassanamesit was home to about 10 families, or 50 individuals. Among these were its “ruler,” Annaweekin (or “Annaweakin”); his brother Wawaus (or “James the Printer”), the Nipmuc man who was integral to the production of the first translated Algonquin Bible; their brother Joseph Tupukawillin (or “Tuckapa-willin”), who was a teacher; and their father, Naoas. Hassanamesit was home to the second independent congregation, which was established in 1671.

To the Honorable General Court now sitting – We whose names are under written, by order of this Court bearing date December 13, 1695, being ordered to survey the Land in Natick Township claimed by Mr. Samuel Gookin of Cambridge & Samuel How of Sudbury:  we have accordingly measured said land, & we find of the Land which said Gookin & How have sold and disposed of To several persons, 1700 acres full measure, which by information that we have had, the said Gookin & How have sold to the value of 156 pounds, which we account the full value of said land. We have also measured the land betwixt the aforesaid land and Sherborn line, which we have been informed has been claimed by said Gookin and How, and not disposed of, which we find to measure 1000 acres, which we value to be worth 60 pounds of which we have herein drawn a plot of the lines thereof.

We have also set out to the said Gookin and How 200 acres, according to the General Courts order, adjoining the Sudbury River at a place called Indian Head.

We have also propounded to the several persons that have purchased land of the said Gookin and How to pay something to the Indians for a confirmation of this title, but they refuse to do any thing because they have paid to the full value already as their deeds from Gookin and How will show.

Further we did notify Mr. Samuel Gookin and Mr. Samuel How of the Courts order and the time of our meeting at Natick to do the above said work.

Thomas Sawin attorney for the Indians at Natick is willing that the land next to Sherborn should pay for this survey – which charge is fifteen pounds money.

When the Indians came to our towne of Medfield, and were partly about my hosue in the fyring of it & partly betwixt my house & Thomas Ellico a bout 30 rod, I thought I ded heare the very reall voice of Captain Tom. Such a voice as I have heard when once he came with his Natick Souldiers to Medfeild & Comanded them. — I have heard him pronounce at Natick this is all I Can Say. Attached by me John Partridge J.

Joseph Indian, sonne of William of Mogoncoke being Examined do say & confess that Himself with those others named in the margent were the persons that destroyed Thomas Eames family at the begin of Feb. last. That the Same was occasioned by their missing of Corn that they Expected to have found at magunkcooke & by that means was provoaked to come & do that spoyle, Killing of some & carrying captive the rest, & burning house barn & cattel, & do confesse that he himself caryed away on his back one of Eames sons. Also he saith of about 2: mo since he inquired to —– Gm Eames 2 daughters & understood they were at a great Hill, abt midway between Watchusset & Penacooke. & were in good health, & not in a starving plight.

Apumatquin als. Jno being Examind do confirm the Same thing as above to be the truth. Only he saith he knows nothing how it is with Gm Eames daughters at present not having heard lately anything to regarding them.

Wm Jackstraw being examed do confesse the Same thing as above. Ownes That his sonnes Joseph & Jon above examined were present at the desolation of Gm Eames family & that himself was of the company, but kept at a distance a little off in the corn field.

Isaac Beech being prest and – exam do say that Joseph abovenamed confessed the same thing to himself and Jno Prentis.

For encouragement to Joseph who was 1st  examined to tell that truth (they at first Denying all) I told him I would speak to the Govr to spare his life in case he would tell me plainly how all the Said matter was acted. Taken the day & year above Befoer Thos Danforth.

A Note on Terminology

Whenever possible, Native people are referred to individually by name or by tribal affiliation, and not by the term “Indian.” There are two exceptions to this rule:

The first is when using direct quotes from historical figures. These quotes also sometimes use outdated and harmful words that are never acceptable to use when referring to Native people today.

The second is the use of the term “Praying Indians,” specifically meant to refer to the Native people who settled in the Praying Towns established by Reverend John Eliot. These were people from different tribal and kinship groups who convened to cohabitate in these spaces, and who were treated as a single group  by the English. “Praying Indians” is currently the widely accepted term when referring to Native Converts who lived in these English spaces as a group.

William Wannukhow
(ca. 1620-1676)

William Wannukhow, also known as William Jackstraw, was a Nipmuc man who converted to Christianity sometime before 1660. In the period leading up to King Philip’s War, Wannukhow lived with his family in the small Praying Town of Magunkaquog. Wannukhow and his family would have been very familiar with both Thomas Eames, who was responsible for laying out the land for the planting grounds and granaries at Magunkaquog, and Netus, who worshipped with them at Natick (Magunkaquog had no church of its own).

Wannukhow and his family were forced to evacuate Magunkaquog for the larger Praying Town of Hassanamesit by the Massachusetts General Court in the fall of 1675. Hassanamesit was taken by Metacom-allied Nipmucs later that fall, at which point all the Christian inhabitants, including the Wannukhows, traveled with Metacom’s allies (whether by choice or by force is unclear) to the Nipmuc stronghold of Menimesit. Wannukhow and his adult sons, Joseph and John, were present at the time of the fight at the Eames homestead, and their testimony is the only first-hand account of that event.

Annaweekin (ca. 1635-1676)

Annaweekin was  the son of the Nipmuc deacon Naoas and the Sachem of Hassanamesit at the time of King Philip’s War. Annaweekin’s younger brothers Job Kattenanit and James Printer (Wawaus), were sent to be educated by Elijah Corlett while Annaweekin, who was the eldest, was kept home to be educated by the local Nipmuc schoolteacher. James was an integral player in the creation of the first Algonquian Bible and was a sometimes-scout for the English during the war, though he also spent time supporting his Nipmuc kin who were allied with Metacom. Job was interned on Deer Island, and was offered passage back to the mainland by Daniel Gookin if he agreed to act as a scout for the English, which he did throughout the war. These three brothers illustrate the different and complicated personal choices that even the closest of Native kinsmen would make during King Phillip’s War. 

Annaweekin and his brothers were contemporaries of Netus’s son, who was also sent to be educated by Elijah Corlett. He would have known Netus well, as the older man lived and owned land at Hassanamesit during his childhood. The men were all a part of a relatively small network of Christian Nipmuc and it is little surprise that Annaweekin and Netus would join together in the party to retrieve corn from Magunkaquog. William Wannukhow and his sons later named Annaweekin as the second leader of the raid on the Eames house alongside Netus. This may have been an accusation of convenience, as Annaweekin died in battle sometime in the spring of 1676, months before the Wannukhows were examined about their role in the altercation on Mount Wayte.

Thomas Danforth (1623-1699)

Perhaps the person with the strongest stamp on the shape of modern Framingham was Thomas Danforth. Born in Framlingham, England, Danforth settled in Cambridge with his father at the age of 11. Danforth’s father, Nicholas, was a prominent civic leader who served on the Massachusetts General Court. The adult Danforth would follow in his father’s footsteps, serving for twenty years (1659-1678) on the Court of Assistants (the equivalent to the modern State Senate). Danforth also served as the Treasurer and then Steward and Inspector of Economical Affairs for Harvard College. In the period after King Philip’s War, Danforth would become Deputy Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the President of the Province of Maine, and eventually an Associate Judge of the Superior Court, in which capacity he would play a role in the Salem Witch Trials. 

Throughout the 1660s, Danforth was granted the first 250 acres of unceded Nipmuc land in the bounds of modern Framingham by the General Court as payment for his services to the colony. Over the next three decades, Danforth would amass nearly 15,000 acres of land. This land was initially called Danforth’s Farms, but would later be renamed Framingham, in honor of Danforth’s birthplace. Danforth never lived, or by any accounts set foot on his land, though he did, on multiple occasions, grant settlers permission to take up residence on it over the course of his lifetime.

Though there is evidence that Danforth did receive quitclaim deeds from the Nipmuc for some parcels of his land, it is not clear that he did so for the entirety of his holdings, and some of the land that comprises modern Framingham is likely still unceded today.

Elijah Corlett (1609-1686)

Elijah Corlett was a teacher and the founder of the Cambridge Latin School. Many of his pupils made up the earliest students of Harvard College, which the Latin School was adjacent to. Cambridge Latin, along with John Eliot’s Roxbury Latin, was also responsible for the education of many converted Algonquian men, usually with an eye towards their enrollment in Harvard Indian College. Corlett educated many young converts, and, as was evidenced by his interactions with Netus, used this as an opportunity to increase his land holdings throughout the colony, essentially becoming a land speculator in addition to a schoolmaster. In 1659, Corlett petitioned the Massachusetts General Court for land as recognition of his services, and was granted 200 acres of land in modern Framingham. This land directly abutted the parcel that John Stone purchased from 5 Nipmuc men 3 years earlier, as well as a piece of meadow belonging to Reverend Edmund Browne of Sudbury. Sometime around 1658, Netus signed over 3 acres of meadow to Reverend Browne, possibly in payment for a debt. The exact location of this meadow is unknown, but it is possible that this same piece of land was the piece abutting Corlett’s grant. Four years later, Corlett would sue Netus for his land holdings in Grafton as payment for educating Netus’s son. Corlett likely never saw either of these parcels in person, but he did sell the Framingham land for an unspecified sum and the Grafton land at  £30, nearly 4 times more than the £7.10 that he originally sued Netus for.

Daniel Gookin (1612-1687)

Daniel Gookin was the first superintendent to the Praying Indians in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. In this capacity, he aided Reverend John Eliot with the establishment of the Praying Towns and was an official government liaison to the Praying Indians within the Colony. He wrote two histories of Native peoples in New England, Historical Collections of the Indians in New England (1674), and The Doings and Sufferings of the Christian Indians (1677). These two documents sandwich King Philip’s War and are an important window into the drastic ways the Massachusetts Bay’s relationship with Native New Englanders drastically changed within just a few short years.

Gookin and Eliot were two of the only advocates for the Praying Indians during King Philip’s War, though their advocacy did not result in better treatment by other colonial officials. Gookin was an incredibly complicated figure. His sympathy to the plight of the Praying Indians made him unpopular among the other English, and even cost him political appointments and elections, but his advocacy was stilted, and did not extend to those who had not converted to Christianity. In fact, his advocacy was sometimes non-existent, and – even at its strongest – was not usually enough to save lives. 

After the war, Gookin’s son, Samuel, was a land speculator who purchased 200 acres of land from the people of Natick around 1696. He and his partner then sold nearly nine times that much land to English settlers, prompting a legal battle from Natick.

Reverend John Eliot (1604-1690)

John Eliot was a missionary and the founder of Roxbury Latin School. Eliot’s ministry was focused on the conversion of various Algonquian peoples to Christianity. The cornerstone of this ministry was an Algonquian translation of the Bible, which was made possible by some of his earliest converts. Dreaming of established towns where converts could settle and form Christian villages in the English style, Eliot petitioned the Massachusetts General Court for lands to establish a “Praying Plantation,” where educated and trained Algonquian peoples would preach and teach the next generation of “Praying Indians.”

In 1650, the General Court granted Eliot 2,000 acres to establish the first of these towns at Natick. He would follow this with 13 more such villages around the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and would encourage the Christian education of the young men who grew up within these villages. 

During King Philip’s War, Eliot, along with Daniel Gookin, frequently advocated for the Praying Indians and other Native allies who came under the purview of the English, though his protestations against their unjust treatment did not always prove to be particularly strong. Ultimately, he did not hold (or did not wish to hold) very much sway over the official actions of the Colonial government and many of the people whom he had converted were killed in battle, hanged, interned, or sold into slavery.

Tantamous (ca. 1590-1676)

Tantamous, also called Old Jethro, was a Nipmuc spiritual leader who lived with his family on Nobscot Hill, which straddles the border between modern Framingham and Sudbury. Though Tantamous never converted to Christianity, he did regular business with the English, and at the outbreak of war in the Spring of 1675, made the decision to ally himself with the English and move to Natick for protection, perhaps because his son, Hantomush (Peter Jethro), was a Christian convert already living there. The protection that he expected in Natick did not materialize, and just months after his relocation there, the General Court confined all inhabitants of Praying Towns to within a mile of their village. This was soon followed by the forced relocation of the inhabitants of Natick to Deer Island. Tantamous and his family joined Netus and others, fleeing westward. While Netus would return to the area around Framingham and Natick, eventually taking up arms against the English, Tantamous settled with his family near Wachusett to wait out the war. He never seems to have participated in the conflict on either side, though his son, Hantomush, would side with the English, serving as a scout and spy for their forces. In late August or early September of 1676, Tantamous was convinced to deliver himself to the English, with the understanding that his son had secured amnesty for his family. This protection, once again, failed to materialize and he was hanged on Boston Common, September 26, 1676. His remaining family was sold into slavery.

Pequot War

The Pequot War of 1636-1638 was a colonial war between the Pequot Nation, English settlers, and settler-allies from the Narragansett and Mohegan Nations.  Characterized as one of the first American “Indian Wars,” it emerged in the wake of increasing acts of aggression from New England settlers, including attempts to extract indemnity payments from the Pequot Nation and to capture Pequot children and place them in indentured servitude. Settler aggression reached an apex after a company of soldiers that had been sent to Pequot country to search for the alleged killer of English settler John Stone went on the offensive. In public memory, the war ended with the 1637 massacre of hundreds of Pequot men, women, and children at a Pequot village near the Mystic River. However, the war officially ended in 1638, with the Treaty of Hartford. Although settler lore pronounced the Pequot Nation “extinct” due to the English victory, the Pequot Nation is still very much alive. Descendants comprise the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation and the Eastern Pequot Nation, and are also part of the Brothertown Indian Nation in Wisconsin.

Deer Island

Deer Island is a Boston Harbor island that was used by the Massachusetts Bay Colony to intern “Praying Indians” from Nipmuc country during King Philip’s War. Internment came in the wake of growing restrictions on Indigenous mobility throughout the region and mounting settler anxieties. Hundreds of Indigenous persons were moved to Deer Island and other Boston Harbor islands during the winter of 1675; there, they were not provided with adequate food stores and supplies, and were exposed to the harsh winter elements. At least one historian estimates that half of the total population of people interned on Deer Island died during the winter of 1675/1676. Today, members of the Nipmuc Nation organize an annual sacred paddle to Deer Island to return to their ancestors and remember them.

Waushakamaug

According to historian Stephen Herring, Waushakamaug was “probably the largest Nipmuc settlement within the bounds of today’s Framingham.”  Waushakamaug was situated near the 90-acre Waushakum Pond, and its name is said to translate in Nipmuc to “eel-fishing place.”  While many historians suggest that Nipmuc people “abandoned” their villages by the time that settlers began to establish Framingham, Waushakamaug was almost certainly still considered to be a site of deep meaning and importance to members of the Nipmuc Nation, particularly due to the pond’s abundance of eels, a traditional staple in Nipmuc diets. Thomas Eames established his homestead on unceded land that comprised part of the village of Washakamaug, and Josiah H. Temple, in his History of Framingham Massachusetts, indicates that Eames in fact placed his home on an active seasonal village site, which Eames then destroyed. The last known Nipmuc Sachem at Waushakamaug was Wuttuwushan, whose descendants lived in Natick and sold their remaining land holdings off to descendants of Thomas Eames in the early 18th century.

Okommakamesit

Okommakamesit (Modern Marlborough) was a Praying Village established in 1654 on land that, according to Daniel Gookin, comprised approximately 6000 acres.  It was located about 12 miles Northeast of Hassanamesit, and had about 10 families, or 50 individuals, in residence.  Historically, Okommakamesit has been falsely conflated with the nearby settler town of Marlborough, which was officially incorporated as a town in 1660.  This is because during King Philip’s War, residents of Okommakamesit moved into Marlborough, probably to alleviate settler suspicion. This did not prevent them from being removed and interned on Deer Island in 1675, at which point the settlers of Marlborough commandeered the land comprising Okommakamesit to incorporate into their own town.

Natick

In 1651, Reverend John Eliot established Natick, the first and largest Praying Village, on 2000 acres of land “granted” to him by the Massachusetts Bay General Court. With an additional land grant in 1659, the village expanded to 6000 acres. Natick was largely comprised of people from the Massachusett and Nipmuc Nations, and an estimated 29 families, or 145 individuals, lived at Natick in 1674. Natick was one of two Praying Villages to have its own independent congregation.

Magunkaquog

Magunkaquog (modern Ashland), also known as “Magunkoag” or “Magunkog,” was a Praying Village located halfway between Natick and Hassanamesit.  About 11 families, or 55 individuals, lived at Magunkaquog.  Inhabitants of Magunkaquog worshipped at Natick, and Magunkaquoag was considered to be the last of the “original” Praying Villages.

Praying Towns

Praying Villages, also known as “Praying Towns,” were a network of at least 14 communities within the bounds of what settlers called the Massachusetts Bay, Plymouth, and Connecticut colonies. Started by John Eliot in the mid-17th century, they were living settlements for Indigenous people that had converted to Christianity.  While living within such villages, “Praying Indians,” as they were often referred to, were expected to practice Christianity, adopt English agricultural practices, and comport themselves according to English gender norms and modes of dress. 

While inhabitants of Praying Villages were considered wards of the colony, numerous scholars have challenged the notion that these individuals and families were fully assimilated or had fully accepted settler rule.  Such scholars situate Indigenous people’s habitation in Praying Villages as a survival strategy in the face of growing settler aggression and land encroachment, and underscore the fact that many “Praying Indians” kept language, culture, and kinship ties alive.  

The Praying Villages discussed in this exhibit were located in Nipmuc country, although inhabitants also came from neighboring Indigenous nations.
