Over two hundred and fifty vintage<br>photographs have been carefully selected from the vast<br>collection of the Milton Historical Society to create a dazzling<br>portrait of the town in its heyday.<br>Milton, once home to the Neponset Indians, became<br>a small farming community with the arrival of European<br>settlers. Over time, the town blossomed into an important<br>industrial and cultural resource for Boston and all of the<br>South Shore. The vibrant settlement, which used water power<br>to create the country s first grist mill in 1634, later became<br>home to the first pianoforte and bass viol manufacturers in<br>the United States. Through the years, pleasure-seekers from<br>near and far became attracted to Milton as well, building<br>summer estates and fond memories in the Milton Hill, <br>Canton Avenue, and Brush Hill Road areas. Walking tours<br>of the town even today attract and delight both residents of<br>milton and visitors from out of town."
