| The Town of Tewksbury is a suburban community located on the uplands
between the Concord and Merrimack Rivers. It is located on slightly
rolling lowland terrain with large areas of bog and swamp throughout town.
Tewksbury was gradually settled from Billerica during the early decades of
the 18th century. The original economic base depended on farming and
grazing with lumbering as a secondary activity, and a saw mill was
established on Trull Brook about 1736. By the early 19th century the Lee
family tannery had been built and continued in operation throughout the
century. The primarily agricultural economy of the town shifted in the
direction of commercial businesses because of its proximity to Lowell. In
1854, the state opened an almshouse in Tewksbury, one of three established
by the General Court. The complex of buildings generally held an average
of 1000 inmates, and even more after the financial panic of 1857.
Residents of Tewksbury developed greenhouses and market gardens between
1890 and 1915 as the town's dominant business, while many hothouses raised
carnations and other flowers commercially for city markets. So many were
raised that Tewksbury held the name of the carnation town for years. In
1930, New England Power built the Tewksbury substation, bringing power from
Vermont over a 230 kv line, the highest voltage line in New England at the
time. |
