June 21, 1788 New Hampshire Becomes a State June 21, 1788 New Hampshire Becomes a State New Hampshire is a state filled with beauty. Tourists love the mountains, lakes, and beaches. In the fall, the beauty of the bright leaves in all shades of red, orange, and yellow attract many visitors. And in the winter, the mountains attract skiers from many areas. In addition, visitors find a wealth of history in the state. In St. John’s Episcopal Church in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, you will find the Brattle organ. It is claimed that this organ is the oldest pipe organ in the United States. It was built in England and sent to the colonies in 1708 or earlier. It is still in good condition, and you can hear it played on special occasions. Did you know that artificial rain was first used to fight a forest fire near Concord in 1947? Many famous people are from New Hampshire, including Franklin Pierce, Daniel Webster, Alan B. Shepard, Jr., Christa McAuliffe, Salmon P. Chase, William Pitt Fessenden, Sarah Josepha Hale, and Eleanor Porter. Look at the map of New Hampshire below. Label the capital of New Hampshire. Locate the cities of Manchester, Nashua, Dover, Rochester, Keene, Portsmouth, Laconia, Claremont, Lebanon, Somersworth, Berlin, and Franklin, and label them on the map. Now label the White Mountains, Presidential Range, Franconia Range, Mount Washington, Mount Adams, Mount Jefferson, Mount Clay, Mount Monroe, Mount Madison, Profile Mountain, Cannon Mountain, Mount Moosilauke, Mount Monadnock, Mount Cardigan, Mount Kearsarge, and Sunapee Mountain Also, locate the Connecticut River, Pemigewasset River, Merrimack River, Winnipesaukee River, Androscoggin River, Saco River, Piscataqua River, Salmon Falls River, Lake Winnipesaukee, First Connecticut Lake, Second Lake, Squam Lake, Newfound Lake, and Winnisquam Lake, and label them.

  • Martin Pring
    PEOPLE MENTIONED IN CAPE COD CAPTAIN MARTIN PRING CAPTAIN MARTIN PRING “NARRATIVE HISTORY” AMOUNTS TO FABULATION, THE REAL STUFF BEING MERE CHRONOLOGY “Stack of the Artist of Kouroo” Project People of Cape Cod: Captain Martin Pring HDT WHAT? INDEX THE PEOPLE OF CAPE COD: CAPTAIN MARTIN PRING PEOPLE MENTIONED IN CAPE COD CAPE COD: It is remarkable that there is not in English any PEOPLE OF adequate or correct account of the French exploration of what is CAPE COD now the coast of New England, between 1604 and 1608, though it is conceded that they then made the first permanent European settlement on the continent of North America north of St. ÆSOP Augustine. If the lions had been the painters it would have been XENOPHANES otherwise. This omission is probably to be accounted for partly by the fact that the early edition of Champlain’s “Voyages” had CHAMPLAIN not been consulted for this purpose. This contains by far the most particular, and, I think, the most interesting chapter of what we may call the Ante-Pilgrim history of New England, extending to one hundred and sixty pages quarto; but appears to be unknown WEBSTER equally to the historian and the orator on Plymouth Rock. Bancroft BANCROFT does not mention Champlain at all among the authorities for De Monts’ expedition, nor does he say that he ever visited the coast of New England. Though he bore the title of pilot to De Monts, he was, in another sense, the leading spirit, as well as the historian of the expedition. Holmes, Hildreth, and Barry, and BARRY apparently all our historians who mention Champlain, refer to the edition of 1632, in which all the separate charts of our harbors, &c., and about one half the narrative, are omitted; for the author explored so many lands afterward that he could afford to forget a part of what he had done.

  • A Day on the Thomas Laighton by David Ramsay May 24, 2021
    A Day on the Thomas Laighton by David Ramsay May 24, 2021 O LORD, our Sovereign, how majestic is your name in all the earth! (Psalm 8 NRSV) During prayer in the morning, I recite one of my favorite Psalms and ending with a prayer that on our voyage out to the Isles of Shoals, we all may be inspired by His Presence, by the beauty of the ocean, the sparkling waters, the gentle sunlight and my words about history and the people that once called this lonely group of islands home. As we back out into the Piscataqua River, I offer a warm welcome and begin by orienting them to the second most rapid flowing rivers in the United States. In 1603 a young sea captain, age 23, Martin Pring came from Bristol, England to explore and exploit this river, hoping to find sassafras, then thought to be a cure for the French Pox. Not finding any, what he did discover was far more important, a vast abundance of tall White Pine trees, dearly coveted by His Majesty, the King of England, as ship masts! More stories: shipbuilding, the history of the Memorial Bridge, the origin of the lovely riverfront Prescott Park, created due to the generosity of two local schoolteachers, Josie, and Mary Prescott. And much more: The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, several forts, lighthouses, including references to the lighthouse keepers, some quite humorous characters. As we leave the harbor, passengers have settled in and are enjoying the sea air and sun, expectant about reaching the Isles of Shoals and our tour of Star Island.

  • Colonial Failure in the Anglo-North Atlantic World, 1570-1640 (2015)
    FINDLEY JR, JAMES WALTER, Ph.D. “Went to Build Castles in the Aire:” Colonial Failure in the Anglo-North Atlantic World, 1570-1640 (2015). Directed by Dr. Phyllis Whitman Hunter. 266pp. This study examines the early phases of Anglo-North American colonization from 1570 to 1640 by employing the lenses of imagination and failure. I argue that English colonial projectors envisioned a North America that existed primarily in their minds – a place filled with marketable and profitable commodities waiting to be extracted. I historicize the imagined profitability of commodities like fish and sassafras, and use the extreme example of the unicorn to highlight and contextualize the unlimited potential that America held in the minds of early-modern projectors. My research on colonial failure encompasses the failure of not just physical colonies, but also the failure to pursue profitable commodities, and the failure to develop successful theories of colonization. After roughly seventy years of experience in America, Anglo projectors reevaluated their modus operandi by studying and drawing lessons from past colonial failure. Projectors learned slowly and marginally, and in some cases, did not seem to learn anything at all. However, the lack of learning the right lessons did not diminish the importance of this early phase of colonization. By exploring the variety, impracticability, and failure of plans for early settlement, this study investigates the persistent search for usefulness of America by Anglo colonial projectors in the face of high rate of
