History

P. It had been a frequent topic of pulpit rhetoric. Newburyport once had a fishing fleet that operated from Georges Bank to the mouth of the Merrimack River. Situated near the mouth of the Merrimack River, it was once a fishing, shipbuilding and shipping center, with an industry in silverware manufacture. Today, the city gives little hint of its former maritime importance.
