Petersham, Massachusetts, USA

Petersham, Worcester, MA

Petersham was first settled in 1733 and was officially incorporated on April 20, 1754. The town's lands were expanded greatly by the building of the Quabbin Reservoir in 1938. When the towns of the Swift River Valley were disincorporated, Petersham and neighboring New Salem benefited the most, with Petersham receiving all of the former town of Dana, much of the town of Greenwich, and a small portion of the former town of Prescott east of the Middle Branch of the Swift River. wikipedia

Petersham includes: Ledgeville and Nichewaug.
