Danvers MA Community Profile & History
Danvers, Massachusetts , in southern Essex County, is one of the oldest settlements in the North Shore region. Colonists had moved into the area, originally part of Salem, as early as 1630, and Danvers was incorporated as a separate town in 1757. Governor John Endicott was one of the town's first settlers and established Orchard Farm, a very large land holding for its day, with 300 to 400 acres. The community is historically noted for its association with the Salem Witch Trials of 1692. The house of Rebecca Nurse, a convicted "witch", was restored in the early 20th century and remains a popular tourist attraction today.
The town's location, proximity to Boston and easy access to roads north and south have transformed Danvers from a small colonial farming community to a thriving suburban municipality which is proud of its municipal services and school system. Though well within reach of New England's major urban centers, the town has carefully maintained a close-knit rural atmosphere, with acres of open space and a stunning array of antique homes. Popular attractions include the 165-acre Endicott Park, a diverse expanse of meadows, pastures, old farm buildings, woodlands and marsh that offers opportunities for hiking, fishing, cycling, and nature watching; Glen Magna Farms, a historic country estate with an assortment of lush gardens and statues; and the scenic waterfront, with a yacht club, town boat landing, one public and four private marinas.
