Do you know of Westerly ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Westerly. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Westerly.

We found mention of Westerly as a community (see Mentions and References below), but haven't been able to determine its location - other than being located somewhere in Kent County, Rhode Island.

This entry could have originated in error. It might be that a source had a misprint, was simply wrong or we made a transcription error while referencing it. Many of the documents we reference are from the 1800s and the early 1900s, with some easier to read than others.

There is one other community in Rhode Island which is also named Westerly.

Beyond Rhode Island, we know of another three communities that are located throughout in the United States and Canada. Of these three communities, three are located in the United States and one is in Canada.
