St. Edward the Confessor in Medfield began as a mission from Sacred Heart in Natick. It was named for St. Edward the Confessor, a Medieval king of England who ruled in the 1000s.
Sacred Heart in Middleborough split off from St. Thomas the Aquinas in Bridgewater. The cornerstone of the church was laid in 1880.
