Town records in Medford begin in 1673, even though the spine of the first town book gives the date of 1657. Surrounding Middlesex County towns include Stoneham, Melrose, Malden, Everett, Sommerville, Arlington, & Winchester.

 

Medford Town Records 1657-1718. Vol 1. 277 pages.

Though the spine of this original book shows 1657, the earliest date found is 1673. The penmanship in some of the early pages makes for difficult reading. The transcript below may clarify the rough spots. The vital records on fiches 6 and 7 are an unexpected treat.
