Rowley was originally settled as a plantation by Reverend Ezekiel Rogers, who had arrived from England on the ship John of London with approximately twenty families. The following spring, on September 4, 1639, the town was incorporated, and included portions of modern day Byfield, Georgetown, and Haverhill. The town was named after Rowley, East Riding of Yorkshire, where Rogers had served as pastor for twenty years before his suspension due to non-conformist puritanical beliefs. Rogers was installed as Rowley's pastor on December 3. 1643 and 1645 saw the construction of a fulling mill and grist mill, respectively. The town became known for its hemp and flax cloth, as well as cotton.

he Rowley River and marsh is a popular hunting spot for mallard and black duck. The Rowley House Of Pancakes has also been a long time family meeting place. Probably the most popular (and most famous) attraction to Rowley is the Agawam Diner located at the corner of Rt.133 and Rt.1
