Anoosamaye, John.
Natick was founded in 1650 by missionary John Eliot as one of the seven original Praying Indian villages in eastern Massachusetts.
After its establishment, Natick numbered about 150 inhabitants with a reserve of 6,000 acres of land. It eventually became the principal Indian village in the region. However, the outbreak of King Philip's War (1675-1676) severely reduced its population and disrupted much of the mission work.
