East Bridgewater was first settled by Europeans in 1630 as an outgrowth of the Plymouth and Duxbury plantations. On Sachem Rock, the land 7 miles in every direction was purchased from Chief Massasoit and would later become Olde Bridgewater. The East Parish founded in 1723, and officially separated from Bridgewater and incorporated on June 14, 1823.
