The name is derived from the 1,000-acre plantation (most of it now South Acton) granted in 1654 to Major Simon Willard, a founder of Concord. The grant was acquired about 1660 by the Concord Iron Works Company, and became in 1700-1710, the location of the first village settlement in Acton, which was incorporated as a town in 1735.</font></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> <font face="Verdana" size="3"> </font></p> <p class="MsoBodyText3" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left" align="left"> <font face="Verdana" size="3">The purpose of the Iron Work Farm in Acton, Inc. is to study the documents and preserve the tangible landmarks connected with this village, which later was a prominent commercial center in the railroad era of 1845 to 1900.</font></div> </font> <p><img border="0" src="images/IWF01.jpg" width="171" height="98"></p> <font id="role_document" face="Arial" color="#000000"> <span style="font-family: Nueva Roman"><font face="Arial"> <div> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 6pt" align="center"> </span></font></span></font><i><span style="font-family: Times New Roman"> <font id="role_document" face="Arial"> <span style="font-family: Nueva Roman"><font face="Verdana"> <span style="font-family: EngravrsRoman Bd BT">IRON WORK FARM<br>  IN ACTON</span></font></span></font><font face="Arial"><span style="font-family: Nueva Roman"><font id="role_document" face="Verdana"><span style="font-family: EngravrsRoman Bd BT"> </span></font></span></font></span></i> <span style="font-size: 16pt; font-family: Nueva Roman"><font size="2"> <span style="font-size: 12pt"> <font id="role_document" size="2" face="Verdana"> <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'EngravrsRoman Bd BT'">INC.</span></p> </font></span></font><span style="font-size: 12pt"> <font size="2" face="Verdana" id="role_document"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0pt" align="center"> <span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial Narrow">INCORPORATED 1964</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0pt" align="center"> <span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial Narrow"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0pt" align="center"> <span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Narrow'">P.O.
