"The original land patent was obtained by General Oringle Stoddard, who came from Massachusetts in 1785 as a commissioner for the Boston Company to bargain with the Native Americans for land. An enormous tract, 2,300,000 acres, changed hands, and became known as the Boston Purchase...By 1791, there were 600 pioneer residents, and the native people began to disappear... Eventually, commerce changed from farming, fishing, and lumbering to shops and factories, and on to technologically sophisticated empires. "
