history

Jaquith Public Library

After a few problems, Issac Marsh received the grant in 1790 for an area which was named Marshfield . A settlement emerged on the stagecoach route Cabot, Danville, Montpelier. This is also where the streets that connected the scattered farms with the village and the mills that existed here ended. With the connection to the Montpelier and Wells River Railroad, the village continued to flourish. The route passes just a few hundred meters south of the village and a stop has also been built there.

The Village Marshfield was granted independent rights in 1911.

In the village are the Wooster Cementary cemeteries to the east and Hudson Cementary to the west.
