Newburyport, MA Community Information

Newburyport has a long and rich history. Located on the south bank of the Merrimack River at the mouth of the Atlantic Ocean, the area was originally inhabited by the Pawtucket Indians, and was later settled in the 1630’s by European immigrants who founded the city of Newbury. The small port of Newbury was quickly settled and became a fishing and trading settlement with the rest of Newbury turning to agricultural pursuits.
