Boston Harbor

Boston Harbor History In the early 1600's the Massachusetts Bay Company, a small band of Puritans led by John Winthrop, landed and began settling the area, clearing land for livestock and firewood. Boston Harbor quickly became a busy trading port. By 1660 almost all English imports to New England came through these waters. As a British colony, Boston began to grow in size, laying the scene for the beginnings of the American Revolution one hundred years later.

Tea Party ANYONE! In 1774 disgruntled colonists used Boston Harbor as a giant tea cup. The Boston Tea Party, as it is called, happened when colonists disguised as Native Americans stole on board a British ship and threw crate after crate of tea into the Boston Harbor to protest the high taxes which Britain had levied on the tea import.
