Old Deerfield stood on Indian land called Pocomtuck and was settled by men from Dedham in 1671. It was attacked by Indians, burnt, and abandoned in 1675. It was reoccupied and attacked again in 1704 by French and Indians, who took 47 lives and carried off 112 captives to Canada, of whom 60 were later redeemed.
