Cape Ann

United States

Cape Ann shares 52 connections with 846 other places across 11 topics, from art and colonial history to literature and nature. Art is the dominant topic, with the Cape Ann Museum appearing in the evidence as a repository for correspondence between writers and local figures. Massachusetts and Boston are the most closely linked places, while Gloucester, England and New England anchor a transatlantic and regional cluster. Captain John Smith originally named the cape “Cape Tragabigzanda” before Charles I assigned it an English name.
