Granville, Massachusetts, USA

Granville, Hampden, MA

Granville was first settled by English colonists in 1736 and was officially incorporated in 1754, after the end of the Indian wars in 1750. Early settlers could get a 100-acre (0.40 km2) lot for free, providing they built a house and "put four acres in English hay". Perhaps the most famous resident of that era was Oliver Phelps, whose purchase of 6 million acres (24,000 km2) in western New York (Phelps and Gorham Purchase) following the American Revolutionary War remains the largest real estate purchase in US history.
