The site of Weymouth first saw European inhabitants in 1622 as Wessagusset, an offshoot of the Plymouth settlement. In 1624, according to city lore, the settlement was bolstered by the arrival of the ship "Charity" from Weymouth, England, including one Richard Harding, the ancestor of President Warren Harding. It became part of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630 with 500 inhabitants and was officially incorporated in 1635, then assuming its present name.
Myles Standish is credited with saving the settlement in its early years from Indian attack, hoping that doing so would preempt an attack on Plymouth.
Weymouth boasts the house where Abigail Adams, wife of President John Adams, was born.
