Mr. Speaker. it is my distinct pleasure to recognize before this body the Town of Ainsworth as it celebrates its 100th Anniversary this year. Named for a young immigrant from Dorchester. England. "Uncle Tom" Ainsworth. the Ainsworth name has long been a fixture of my district. Uncle Tom Ainsworth and his brothers played a key role in the agricultural development of the area. which included tending dams on the Wolf River. His descendents over the years have held several leadership positions to help continue the pride Uncle Tom had for his new home. Today. the Town of Ainsworth continues to hold tight to its agricultural roots with abundant natural resources and farming opportunities that keep its economy solid.
