  • Historical Wolfeboro
    2019 Wolfeboro Master Plan Wolfeboro NH in 1889 Photo Courtesy: The Write Stuff Graphic Design and Printing HISTORICAL WOLFEBORO Wolfeboro claims to be the oldest summer resort in America because New Hampshire’s Colonial Governor, John Wentworth, built his country estate here in 1769. Sadly, he enjoyed his 3600 acre property for only a few years. As a Loyalist, he fled when the American Revolution began, and his home on the shores of what would later be named Lake Wentworth. His home burned in 1820, the same year he died. Now the cellar hole and surrounding land is a state-owned historic site, and the road leading past it is memorialized as the Governor John Wentworth Highway. Long before, however, the Abenaki tribe ranged throughout central NH. Their trails circled Lake Winnipesaukee and fanned out to other lakes and along river valleys where fish and game were plentiful. The Libby Museum displays two dug-out canoes from Rust Pond found in the 1950s. The native american presence had largely disappeared by the mid-18th century, however. Wolfeboro’s proprietors granted land in 1759 to a group of men who agreed to settle the town, and named it in honor of General James Wolfe, a hero at the battle of Quebec that year. The first permanent settlers of Wolfeboro arrived in 1768, the same year that Wentworth began clearing land for his estate. Surrounding towns were settled about the same time. Arts and Heritage 22 2019 Wolfeboro Master Plan By 1775, Wolfeboro’s population numbered 211. The falls along the Smith River powered both a saw mill and grist mill, and there were other settlement clusters in North Wolfeboro, Wolfeboro Center, and Pleasant Valley.

    2019 Lakes Congress Session Descriptions – Thursday, May 30 Evening Discussion 7:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Steam Over ‘Winnepiseogee’ (Carriage House) Presented by: David Warren, Historian The railroads and their steamboats changed the Lakes Region into the mecca for tourists, vacationers, and summer residents that it is today. No other development in our history has had a greater impact on our economy and culture. The Mount Washington, the oldest iron hull passenger ship in the world still cruising on a fresh waterbody, is a treasured legacy of that era. During this discussion, you will learn how the railroads forever changed the towns on Lake Winnipesaukee that they served and will see how dozens of steamboats extended their reach to the rest of the lake. In addition, stories and diaries left by folks who lived and worked here during that time, as well as steamboat logs and newspaper articles, will help paint a picture of life here during this most interesting era. Finally, David will highlight the fascinating and convoluted story of the Mount Washington, and you will learn why the vessel we know and love today almost didn’t happen. 2019 Lakes Congress Session Descriptions – Friday, May 31 9:00 a.m. – 9:45 a.m. Keynote Address Voices of the Land (Winnipesaukee Ballroom) Presented by: Eric Eckl, Owner, Water Words That Work What motivates property owners to voluntarily take action to reduce erosion and runoff water into waterways? What does it take for you to close that deal? In this inspiring keynote, you will hear what it takes for local grassroots efforts to succeed in getting more conservation practices implemented on the ground to protect our waters, including our lakes.
