Webster is a town located in Worcester County, Massachusetts. It was first settled in 1713 and was officially incorporated in 1832.

Webster is known for containing Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg which is an unofficial name of Lake Chaubunagungamaug. The Nipmucks and other tribes gave it a variety of similar names. Many residents of Webster call it Webster Lake, because they can't pronounce the Nipmuck name, but others take pride in reeling off the Nipmuck version. Spelling of the long name frequently varies, even in official signs near the lake.
