Marshfield has a yearly population
of more that 21,000 that doubles in the
summertime.
The town hosts the Marshfield fair, which
attracts visitors from all around the state.
Marshfield is the birthplace of Statesman
Daniel Webster and his law office, a national
historic landmark,
is located next to the historic Winslow
house. Marshfield was settled by Pilgrims
from the original Plymouth Colony and was
founded in 1640. Marshfield was the home
of many people who remained loyal to King
George III of Great Britain during the Revolutionary
War. Built in 1699, the Winslow House was
never modernized. The house shows how those
loyal to the king lived in the years before
the American Revolution.
