Tewksbury, Massachusetts
This is where the Shawshin tribe settled, allowing them access to a food source through fishing in the river.Tewksbury was also known for a historic visit by President Andrew Jackson, who stopped at local watering hole, Brown's Tavern.The storm began at Round Pond as a small water spout, and traveled west and then southeast to the Shawsheen River.The tornado was powerful enough to flatten barns and sheds, pull up large trees by their roots, and sweep away and kill a team of oxen.Due to the sparse population, and homes located above the valley floor, no one was killed, and only a few people were injured.Tewksbury is bordered by the city of Lowell to the northwest, Dracut to the north (unreachable across the Merrimack), Andover to the northeast, Wilmington to the southeast, and Billerica to the southwest.[7][8] The former Tew-Mac Airport was located in the town[9] before it was closed in 1997 and replaced with condominiums and a country club.[23][24] In the 2010 special election to replace the late Ted Kennedy in the Senate, Tewksbury supported Scott Brown over Martha Coakley by a two-to-one margin.Tewksbury Hospital was used in the opening scene of Adam Sandler's Hubie Halloween.It was also the setting of the fictional Juniper Hills Psychiatric Hospital in the television series Castle Rock.
