About Quincy, Massachusetts
Quincy is a city in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, United States. Massachusett Sachem Chickatawbut had his seat on a hill called Moswetuset Hummock prior to the settlement of the area by English colonists, situated east of the mouth of the Neponset River near what is now called Squantum. During its history, Quincy has been known as a manufacturing and heavy industry center, with granite quarrying dominating employment in the 19th century and shipbuilding at the Fore River Shipyard and Squantum Victory Yard rising to prominence in the 20th century.
