About New Ashford, Massachusetts Land Owners, 1842-1900

The quiet town of New Ashford lies in the north-western corner of Massachusetts, in Berkshire County. This database is a listing of persons who owned land in the town between 1842 and 1900. Also included in this collection is a list of males eligible to vote and were thus assessed a poll tax, the amount of which settled at two dollars. An asterisk following the name indicates the land owner did not live within the town; however, most lived within the county. Due to missing records, land owners between 1870-1873 are not recorded.
