1801, Massachusetts. Partially Printed 8 1/4” x 6 3/4” certificate Signed as President by JONATHAN WARNER (1744-1803) At the start of the American Revolution, Warner served as a Colonel in the Lexington Alarm. In 1781, he was made Brigadier General. Following the war, Warner played a key role in the suppression of Shay’ Rebellion. The certificate certifies “that the President & Directors of the Union Bank as proprietors of Share No. 991 of the SIXTH MASSACHUSETTS TURNPIKE; which Share is transferrable by assignment on the back of this certificate , the same being signed and sealed by such Proprietor … In testimony whereof, the seal of the Corporation is hereunto affixed, the 26th day of Jany. In the Year of Our Lord, 1801 Jona. Warner, President of the Corporation …” Verso of certificate bears an unaccomplished transfer statement. On third page, Moses White has written , “I hereby certify that twenty five Dollars have been paid on the within share no 991 Moses White Treasurer.” The Sixth Massachusetts Turnpike was incorporated on June 22, 1799 with the intention of construction a road from Amherst through Worcester in order to connect with another turnpike that ran through Shrewsbury. Completed during 1800, the road ran forty-three miles. Moses White, who signs our document as treasurer, was contracted to construct a portion of the west end of the Sixth Massachusetts Turnpike that ran five hundred and nineteen rods. In 1829, the entire road became free when it was laid out as a county road. Faint blind embossed seal at upper left corner. Overall Very Fine.
