An American Family History

Elizabeth Fiske Dwinnell

The town of Ipswich was established on August 5, 1634, from common land called Agawam. On October 18, 1648, that portion called the "Village" at the New Meadows was set off as Topsfield. The boundary line between Ipswich and Topsfield was established, February 28, 1694.

Between 1 and 1.5 percent of births ended in the mother's death. Since the average woman gave birth to five to eight children, her lifetime chance of dying in childbirth was quite high.
