History Brief:
Land purchased from the Indians in 1710 became the North Purchase of Woodbury. In October 1739, the Court granted Parish status as Bethlem. A further part of adjoining Woodbury was added in May 1741 and the name became Bethlehem. Bethlehem was incorporated as a town in 1787. Town vital records begin 1787. Barbour collection records cover 1787-1851.
