The ancient name Menotomy and the river of that name.
THE Indians early taught the settlers of Massachusetts Bay Colony to fish their corn, pumpkins, squash and beans; that is, to place a fish in the ground with the seed.
So plentiful were fish in the waters of the colony that they actually overflowed the banks of the smaller rivers and streams, as they crowded through the narrow portions in their haste to reach the spawning grounds.
The taking of land fish, that is, fish taken without the aid of boats, was from the first controlled by the General Court, as The Ware att Misticke, granted to Gov. Winthrop and Mathew Cradocke of London March 4, 1633-4, and Att a Genrall Court holden att Newe Towne, Sept. 3, 1634.

The business was further controlled, when in the General Court, June 6, 1639, It was ordered that all weers shall be set open
