1 The births occurred during the first occupation of the town by not more than half a dozen families, who abandoned their improvements in 1746 or 7 for fear of depredations by Indians. John McCalley was the first white child born in town, of whom any knowledge exists, born in a shelter built against a large rock in the Horace Musey lot. About the time of the second and permanent occupation of the town after the peace of 1763 Col. John Hill of Boston, grantee of the township, traveling thither, found in Litchfield the young people, grown to maturity, and proposed, if they would marry and return to their native town, he would deed them 100 acres of land, which preposition was complied with in the Bridge Village.

The name of the town appears in the records for the first three years after its organization on 24 Nov., 1773, as Hillborough, but without any action of the inhabitants in the premises, and, considering the state of the country in the spring of 1776, no likelihood of action by the legislature on a matter of local importance, the name was changed to Hillsborough. This conclusion of remise, it is proper to say, is matter of inference, rather than the result of an exhaustive explanation of the subject, and I may after all be in error.
