Adding Wareham to Our Gazetteer ...
As we work on our Gazetteer, we occasionally find mention of a community that is new to us. When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future.
The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Wareham was mentioned on a train schedule titled Canadian National Railroad Time Tables (October 1960).
When there's a risk of an area code running out of phone numbers, an 'Overlay Area Code' is created that has the same geographic boundaries as the existing area code. In this case, the 709 code has been Overlayed with the 879 area code. New phone numbers in the Wareham area will be assigned with one of these codes: 709 or 879. As a result, placing a call in the Wareham area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).
