  • Menotomy is the former name of Arlington, Massachusetts, which was the site of a key battle during the American Revolution. The name Menotomy comes from an Algonquian word meaning "swift running water". In 1635, Menotomy was settled as part of Cambridge. In 1807, Menotomy was incorporated as West Cambridge.
  • "The Battle of Menotomy" < link > Menotomy was a village of about 400 farmers, millers, tavern keepers, and their families in 1775. Located in today’s Town of Arlington, Menotomy stretched along Massachusetts Avenue from “the foot of the rocks” near Lexington to Alewife Brook. Menotomy was a crossroads town where the Concord Road west crossed highways to all points: east to Boston and Charlestown; north to Medford, Reading, and Danvers; and south to Watertown and Dedham.
