 | | It is worthy of note that the first representative that Mansfield, as a separate precinct, sent to the General Court was the son of Nicholas White. |
 | | When Mansfield, in 1770, became incorporated as a district, it was provided that Norton should allow Mansfield a part of the money already assessed for the support of the schools. |
 | | They were: The Mansfield North Manufacturing Company, 1814, on the site of the old furnace, known as the old North Factory; the Skinner Factory, 1815, in West Mansfield, where Brigg’s grist mill later stood; and the Williams factory, 1820, in Happy Hollow, West Mansfield. |
