Did you know?
Many colonists first came from
Massachusetts to settle in New
Hampshire. They wanted to escape the
strict religious rules in Massachusetts.
The New Hampshire colonists used
the many trees in the forests to build
homes and boats. White pines that
grew to 100 feet tall were perfect
for the masts on sailing ships.
Most New Hampshire towns
were built around a meetinghouse
The settlers gathered there for
important meetings. On Sundays, the
meeting house was used for church.
Read
about the Algonquin Indians,
who lived in New Hampshire for
thousands of years, the first schools,
the French and Indian War, and
much more. Plus learn how New
Hampshire became our ninth state.
