  • Chapter Seven
    Chapter 7: HISTORIC RESOURCES A Brief History of Settlement in Ossipee with thanks to Ted Cook; used with permission Ossipee is located in the central section of New Hampshire, bordering the State of Maine. Extending sixty miles north and west from the seacoast, Ossipee was granted by the English authorities to John Mason in 1622. This grant conflicted with others obtained by the actual settlers. So Mason’s Patent had a stormy history during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, until it was bought by a syndicate of Portsmouth merchants and government officials in 1746. The Masonian Proprietors, as this group was called, promptly relinquished any claim to the settled part of the colony, and began granting and selling townships in the unsettled, inland portions of their territory. Their usual procedure was to grant a township to a group of men who promised to sell it promptly, while reserving a number of parcels within the township for themselves, in hopes that the lots they kept would appreciate in value and become saleable at a later time. Among the towns granted on this basis were Wakefield (1749), Effingham (1749) and Wolfeborough (1759). Tuftonborough was given outright to a member of the Mason family, who later turned it over to several prominent Portsmouth men for development. This series of grants left an unsettled gore of land between the new townships, which avoided boundary disputes in view of the imprecise knowledge the Proprietors had of the exact locations of their grants. By 1770, however, two factors precipitated the development of Ossipee Gore, which extended through the modern Town of Ossipee and around Ossipee Lake into present Freedom.

  • Convention Constitution
    The State of New Hampshire CONVENTION TO REVISE THE CONSTITUTION NOVEMBER 1850 Published by the State of New Hampshire, Secretary of State, Concord, New Hampshire 03301 2005 OFFICERS OF THE CONVENTION –––––––––––– President FRANKLIN PIERCE of Concord Secretary THOMAS WHIPPLE of Laconia Assistant Secretary CHARLES H. BELL of Exeter Chaplain THE REVEREND LEVI W. LEONARD of Dublin Doorkeepers IRA R. PHILBRICK of Gilmanton DAVID HARRIS of Swanzey INTRODUCTION Although the delegates to New Hampshire’s Fifth Constitutional Conven- tion called for the printing of its journal the task was never completed. Ever since the manuscript was relocated to the State Archives in 1980, its existence then unknown to living researchers, it has been our intention that it be printed to take its place on the shelf with the journals of our other constitutional conventions. The 1850 convention effectively changed the constitution very little, but it attracts our attention because several of the major items of discussion are the same subjects that command our attention today over a century and a half later. The funding of public education, the structure of the judicial system, and the details of choosing state officials are dominant topics in these pages. The president of the convention, Franklin Pierce who repre- sented Concord, went on to become New Hampshire’s only native son to occupy the White House as our 14th president from 1853 to1857. At the end of the convention, in April 1851, the delegates paid tribute to Pierce for his tremendous service in holding them together and in guiding their course. It is in honor and celebration of Pierce’s 200th birthday [born November 23, 1804] that we now publish this record as part of our state’s history.
