The offices of Assessor and Board of Relief were created by the Constitu- tion of 1818-at which date the office of Lister terminated. The lists of Select- men, Constables and Grand Jurors are designed to embrace all who have been chosen, from the organization of the town in 1721 to the present time-with the year of the first election of each, and the number of times each was elected.
