History of the Town of Hampton, New Hampshire, Vol. 1: From Its Settlement in 1638, to the Autumn of 1892 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from History of the Town of Hampton, New Hampshire, Vol. 1: From Its Settlement in 1638, to the Autumn of 1892
In the early stages of my study, I had an efficient co-laborer in my friend and cousin, Josiah Page, of Hampton, who devoted himself assiduously to the task of gathering information, which, by his notes, and from the treasures of his wonderfully retentive memory, he placed in my hands. A born genealogist, Mr. Page brought to this depart ment of the work his greatest zeal, while he collected also many facts' of historical importance. I have to regret that he died without seeing the work completed.
The names of John Wingate Thornton, Amos Tuck, Edmund B. Dearborn and others, who have passed away, recall much valuable help rendered by these men. To all who have given access to papers, searched records or otherwise aided me in my researches, I would render grateful acknowledgements.
Free reference is made, in these pages, to the works of Belknap, Winthrop and various town historians; to the Provincial and State papers, edited by Rev. Nathaniel Bouton, D.D. To Adjutant General Head's Report s to the New Hampshire Historical Society's Collections, the New England historic-genealogical Register and kindred works; while the records of town, church and county have been the main reliance for the history of' local affairs.
If I have succeeded in preparing a worthy memorial of my native town, in the years fast receding, I shall not have labored in vain.
