Excerpt from Proceedings of Lexington Historical Society and Papers Relating to the History of the Town, Vol. 2: Read by Some of the Members IT would be interesting to know when and where the first clearing was made and the first house built on the land now occupied by the village Of Lexington. The ground, no doubt, was covered by a heavy growth of timber and by fallen trees, large monarchs of the forest that had been'uprooted by the tempests and lay strewn in every direction. To cut down the trees, clear away the fallen wood and prepare the land for gardens and fields must have been a difficult and laborious undertaking. Who began this work here it is impossible to determine; and yet it must have been commenced soon after the first settlement of Cam bridge. As early as 1636 a road was cut through the woods from Cambridge to Concord for Rev. Peter Bulkley and his company to transport their goods to that place, where they formed a settlement. It prob ably ran through the woods near where our main street and the Concord road are now located. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
