[edit] Overview of Wayland, Massachusetts
"In 1640 a group of colonists from Watertown under the leadership of Pastor Edmund Brown settled near the east bank of the Sudbury River. Two years later, the original First Parish meeting house was built: one room with a dirt floor and thatched roof. As "Sudbury Plantation" grew, so did First Parish. Three successive meeting houses were built (in 1652, 1682 and 1725) which served not only as church but also as community center, storehouse, and stockade.
"In 1722 the settlers on the west side of the river, plagued each spring by isolating floods, built a second church in Sudbury. The communities separated in 1780: the west side of the river kept the name of Sudbury, and the east side was called East Sudbury (later to be renamed Wayland)." — From First Parish Church statement online at Archive.org
