Historical Markers Thread

[MattTuck]

I thought we had done this before, but I can't find the old thread (if there was one) -- so I'll go ahead and start a new one.

I like those roadside plaques/signs that give historical details. Over the next couple weeks, think about some rides that go by interesting historical markers and take a picture of them to post in this thread, with a link to the actual location (google maps would be good).

What got me thinking about this was a carved rock in my hometown, which I visited this weekend, and rode past:

From my hometown of Groton, MA. The story of the Longley Family that was raided by Indians, the parents and some children being murdered and some being kidnapped, and ransomed.
