Norwell, Massachusetts is located in Plymouth County, alongside a 21.2 square mile river, known as North River. Norwell was settled in 1636 as part of the Situate Settlement, which later was known as Scituate which encloses Norwell and present day Scituate. In 1849 a part of Scituate broke away and assimilated itself as South Scituate. Thirty-nine years later in 1888, it assimilated itself again as a part of the Town of Norwell. The town was named after a dry goods merchant that raised money for the town roads maintenance, named Henry Norwell. In the 1700's and early 1800's shipbuilding was the primary industry. Some of the best schooners, frigates, and merchant vessels were built in Norwell, Massachusetts.
