Nanepashemet, known to colonists every bit "Sagamore George," was the leader, or Great Sachem of the Pawtucket Confederation of Abenaki People of Lynn (which at that time included present day Revere). Nanepashemet is thought to have sometimes lived about the Rumney Marsh. One branch of his family took "Rumney Marsh" as their surname.[six]  In 1616, an epidemic, probably smallpox, swept the region, killing thousands in its wake. Nanepashemet retired to the Mystic River, in what is now Medford, but was found murdered in 1619 at his fort on the brow of Stone Hill overlooking the river. Three sons succeeded him in his reign. Ane of them, Wonohaquaham, besides chosen "Sagamore John," had jurisdiction over the Native Americans at Winnisemmit (later Chelsea) and Rumney Marsh.[citation needed]  In 1624, Samuel Maverick became the offset colonist to settle in the surface area. He built his business firm at the site of the former Chelsea Naval Hospital (or Admiral's Hill). On June 17, 1630, John Winthrop, the showtime Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Company in New England joined him there for dinner.[7]  On September 25, 1634, Rumney Marsh was annexed to Boston, which had received its name only iv years earlier.
