Description
Hampstead is a charming New Hampshire town with a deep history dating back to its founding in 1749, when Gov. Benning Wentworth incorporated the land surrounding his farm property on what is now known as Governors Island. Hampstead, both past and present, evokes an appreciation of a quaint village lifestyle. Included in this curated collection of the town's history are early photographs of well-known landmarks like the Old Meeting House, built in 1745, and its Paul Revere Jr. bell that still proudly rings today as well as generations of Hampstead families enjoying everyday recreation, including summers spent on the three town lakes. The impact of the railroad coming to town in 1876, the factories and farming economies, celebrated town officials, and school days of the past can all be found in these pages.
