I live in Brookfield, MA, and the well where Joshua Spooner was dumped after he was killed still exists. It was in front of his house. The house is gone but the well is still there. The door knocker from the front door of the house is in the Brookfield town hall. Bathesheba Spooner was hung for the conspiracy/murder of her husband along with the British soldiers. The case is historic/controversial because she was pregnant at the time she was hung. Joshua was buried in the Brookfield cemetery where his tombstone still stands. Feel free to reach out I you want me to direct you to any of those places.

Good morning Adam. Massachusetts is full of American history. As a kid my parents took us all over Mass exploring anything historical. I carried on that tradition with my kids.

Ah LOVE IT !! That TOWN HALL was Amazing to see and so was the DRIVE-IN THEATRE. I lived in Rhode Island for 13 years. New England was FUN to Explore, also a Great Place for Ghost Hunting ! The Architecture, also Amazing ! Enjoyed this one, Adam ! Thank you ! 🙂

A State House is where state legislators hold their meetings. So a Town House is where a town's legislature holds its meetings. That's why there was a room with a stage upstairs. If you went upstairs in the State House in Boston, you would have seen a similar room there, only its much nicer because it's been maintained as part of the museum. I hope they raise the money to restore the Brookfield museum! What a wonderful place to treasure.

Many town halls in New England have auditoriums in them because the primary form of local government is town meeting, where the voters in a town assemble several times per year to vote on a town's affairs (IE make bylaws, approve or reject bonds, rezone land use, approve the municipal budget, etc). New England towns also have a plural executive in their boards of selectmen, aka select boards, which handle the day-to-day management of a town's affairs.

Hello Adam, I’ve been watching the channel for a number of years and just saw this video recently, it’s crazy to see you visit my hometown! I remember about a decade or so ago that the town hall was full of damage and couldn’t even be entered. So it’s cool to see that open again. Brookfield orchards is a town institution as well. Hopefully you enjoyed your visit to the town!

I have a funny story somewhat similar to that man's uncle Harry story. My uncle Harry came to stay at my house one time for about three months. He stayed into the room next to mine. One day he asked my mom to talk to me about watching TV during the early hours of the morning because he could hear it all night. I never watched TV during the early morning, so we just figured it was a hippie flashback. Anyway, about a week later he tells my mom again and so then I went in his room to see maybe it was coming from outside. I listen and finally figure out that the entire time he's been there, the little clock radio on the side of his bed had been on at the lowest volume, which he was only hearing at night when it was dead silent. So when you mentioned uncle Harry and a radio playing, I laughed and had to send my mom the clip.

Woah, North Brookfield! Not a name you hear every day. In the late 2000’s I interned at an awesome recording studio near there called Longview Farm Studios. I’m not sure if they’re still open, but it was a really cool place. It was built in the 70s for The Rolling Stones to rehearse their European tour. The main studio was in the top floor of a barn, but the ground floor was still an operational horse barn. There was an attached apartment where the artists would stay, and the main house (where the owners lived) had a smaller studio as well. It was a really cool place, and great people who owned and ran it!

Right on ! I lived in the nearby town called New Braintree, a really small farm town. All we had was a grade school so we needed to go to junior high, and high school in North Brookfield. I remember in the mid seventies when the stones were at that studio ! Longview.For us at the time it was the coolest thing ever knowing The Rolling Stones we’re in town ! Cheers

Ah, my town! If i'd know you were there I would have treated you to lunch at Jims Pizza or over at Stacey's Pizza Palace. Brookfield Orchards is a hoot for nostalgia....actually, the history of the town is a hoot for small town Americana history...The two houses that look abandoned are in the "Slab City" section of the town and into part of neighboring Brookfield. That area is on the original "Old Post Road" of the Commonwealth, and has remnants of the original North Brookfield town settlement in the mid-late 1600's on the North Brookfield end of the road. Spooner's Well is towards the Town of Brookfield side.. Most of that Slab City area is now part of Audubon Nature Preservation lands. The big Dairy farm on Slab City Road is where "Elsie, the Borden Cow," was from.
