The Richmond Memorial Library is embarking on long term project to place
information about Marlborough's history on-line.
This will be an on-going
process and we will post additional information as it is gathered, reviewed, and
integrated into this portion of our website.
Our initial items are listed below.
A timeline of Marlborough history, originally prepared by the

This area of our website is dedicated to the
memory of James Considine.
Jim was a longtime resident of Marlborough who loved the town, it's
history and shared this fondness through his writings.
We thank his family and friends for their financial support of this
project.
