History of Arlington, MA

First settled and founded by European colonists in 1635, Arlington was originally a village called Menotomy located in the city of Cambridge. The name is an Algonquian word meaning “swift running water.” Settlers chose this spot because of the proximity to the Mill Brook Stream that later became a power source for the mills. Captain George Cooke built the first mill in Arlington in 1637; six other mills followed.

Arlington played a significant role in the American Revolutionary War. On April 19, 1775, a group of Minutemen ambushed the British soldiers here as they retreated from Lexington and Concord. It was a costly battle for both sides, claiming the lives of 25 colonials and 40 British soldiers.

In 1807, this area and a part of Belmont separated from Cambridge and incorporated as West Cambridge. After the establishment of Arlington National Cemetery in 1867, the town decided to officially change its name to Arlington. They did so to honor the American heroes and soldiers buried there after the American Civil War.
