Located just southwest of Boston’s West Roxbury, and Roslindale neighborhoods, Dedham is small town of just under 25,000 residents. Originally settled in 1635, the town also borders Needham, Westwood, and Canton.
When originally incorporated, the town stretched all the way from Boston to the Rhode Island border. And nobody called it “Dedham.” In fact, “Contentment” was the original name. Unfortunately the Massachusetts General Court wasn’t very content (get it?) with the original name. So they changed it to Dedham, in honor a town in Essex, England.
