Synopsis
Excerpt from Some Old Sites on an Old Thoroughfare: And an Account of Some Early Residents Thereon
This order shows that there were surveyors of highways in the Colony at this early date. Early Washington Street is supposed to have extended from the corner of Dover Street to the northerly Roxbury line, which was the south end of Boston Neck. The early road laid out towards Roxbury was on the easterly side of the present Washington Street, very near the beach, the road starting from near Beach Street.
