Information: The Webster Lake dam was created at the southwestern point of the lake and a gristmill was built by a Ephriam Muirhead in 1837. This damming created one large lake from as many as seven smaller lakes. In 1842, Thomas Boydston purchased the gristmill. It is said that he is a descendant of Dr. Zabdiel Boylston. The mill served as a general store and post office in the 1800s. It burned in 1949 and replaced by the current dam.
