This volume is a continuation of the general records of the town
and the Selectmen's Day Book. Herein lies a complete transcript of

Town Meetings, the assemblings and acts of the Selectmen, the

1737-1750. Includes a list of taxpayers by precincts.
In 1886, the Town of Dedham published its first volume of printed
records including births, deaths, and marriages (1635-1845). In
1888, they published the second volume, records from several
churches, and inscriptions from cemeteries (1638-1845). Volume
Three, Book One of the town records and a transcript of the
Selectmen's Day Book (1636-1659), was published in 1892. This work,
Volume Four of Dedham's records, was published in 1894. It contains
a complete transcript of the Town Meeting and Selectmen's Records
contained in Book Three of the General Records of the town,
1659-1673. "Manuscript Book Four contains a miscellaneous
collection of papers, and records, principally of Land Grants, and
so much of that book as relates to the period covered by this
volume is here reproduced." The Appendix contains documents dated
prior to 1673 that relate to Dedham, found either in the
Massachusetts Archives at the State House or in the court files at
the court house in Boston. Transcripts have also been made from the
printed Massachusetts Colony Records. This section contains a list
of deputies to the General Court prior to 1696. "A considerable
portion of the records and papers in the Appendix relates to the
Indian settlement at Natick, the grant from the Town therefore, and
the controversy which grew out of a misunderstanding with regard to
the rights granted to the Indians." Facsimile reprints of
signatures, an illustration of the official town seal, and separate
indices to full-names and subjects augment the text.

selectmen from the end of Book Three, the last published volume of
ancient records." It contains "a large number of tables of tax
assessments. The tables found in the first one hundred and
ninety-two pages have here been reproduced in table form, but from
that point the tables and figures have been omitted from the
printed pages, but all the names found in the table have been
printed." An illustration of the official town seal and separate
