lexington and cambridge etc were formed in 1600s .... they covered
very large areas ... as the smaller hamlets within lexington and
cambridge grew, they became independent communities ... west cambridge
was kinda late in the formation game .. maybe 1850s ... billerica
was fromed in 1700s iirc ... and winchester and belmont were formed
around 1850 iitc ... its all explained earlier in this video
