History of Chelmsford 1910-1970

The Chelmsford Historical Commission has published History of Chelmsford 1910-1970, originally commissioned by the Board of Selectmen in 1965, but never finished. The now completed book includes an update to the 2009-2011 time frame, and is available for sale in the Town Clerk's office and other locations in town, at $30 per copy starting in late January 2012.

The Chelmsford Historical Commission was established under Massachusetts General Law Chapter 40 Section 8D and is comprised of three to seven members. all are volunteers who are appointed by the Town Manager, and approved by the Board of Selectmen for a 3-year term.

The mission of the Chelmsford Historical Commission is to preserve, protect and develop public awareness of Chelmsford's historical assets.
