History

One of these early houses, built initially during the first half of the 1600s, and rebuilt in 1675, was the home of Governor Winthrop’s youngest son, Deane Winthrop, who lived there until his death in 1703. In 2006, a new Town Charter, establishing a city form of government, was passed in a special election. Executive power, largely ceremonial, resides in the Council President, who is popularly elected. Winthrop has a weekly newspaper, the 'Winthrop Sun Transcript', which reports local news, current events, happenings, and concerns. On July 26, 2007, the 'Winthrop Sun Transcript' reported that a movement was beginning to abolish the Town Council and return to a Representative Town Meeting.
