General Information about Norwell
Norwell is a town in Plymouth County, Massachusetts, United States. The population was 9,765 at the 2000 census.
Norwell was first settled in 1634 as a part of the settlement of Satuit (later Scituate), which encompasses present day Scituate and Norwell. It was officially created, in 1849 and soon became known as South Scituate. The town changed its name to Norwell in 1888, named after Henry Norwell, a dry goods merchant who provided funds for the maintenance of the town roads. Early settlers were attracted to Norwell for agricultural reasons, with the town later developing a major shipbuilding industry, based on the North and Northwest rivers. Shipbuilding was a major industry on the 1700s through the early 1800s. Some of the finest frigates, schooners, whalers, and merchant vessels were produced in Norwell.
