At one time Freetown and Tiverton R.I. bordered each other. That was before Fall River became a Town. The Quequechan River ran between Freetown Mass. and Tiverton R.I. They also have early land records for Tiverton R.I. as at one time Tiverton R. I. was part of Bristol County Massachusetts. I found the same land records there that I had copied at the Tiverton Town Hall. Good Luck in your research. Marge
