New Hampshire Colonial Records

History
The first European settlement in New Hampshire was built in 1623 along the Piscataqua River by merchants who came from the Plymouth Colony. Initially included in the province of Maine, Captain John Mason was granted land between the Merrimack and Piscataqua rivers which he named New Hampshire. In 1641, the jurisdiction of New Hampshire came under the Massachusetts Bay Colony and it became part of the county of Norfolk in 1643. Although New Hampshire continued to share a governor with Massachusetts until 1741, it became a royal province in 1679.
