Yes, there were slaves in Wrentham, MA during the colonial period. Like many other New England towns, Wrentham had some residents who owned enslaved individuals for labor. The practice of slavery was gradually phased out in Massachusetts, with the state passing laws to abolish slavery by the early 1780s.
