Several years ago the author became interested iu the history of his own ancestry, and commenced gathering such information as was available in regard to it. Town, county, church, and probate records were searched for in- formation in regard to the Currier family. Local histories were read for information in regard to the places where the members of the family lived. Much information was also obtained irom members of the family and from family records. At first there was no intention of publishing the mater- ial collected, but as more and more iniorraation became available the author was urged by other members of the family to arrange and publish what he had collected. The present volume is the result of this request, and it is hoped that it will prove of interest not only to the present but also to the future generations of the Currier family. The plan of the book will, it is believed, be easily understood. Beginning with Richard Currier of Salisbury and Amesbury, Mass., and his descendants of the second and third generations, the work has been carried sufficient- ly far to enable any of the present generation to trace back their relationship. The object of the author has been to preserve all the important facts which can be gathered in regard to the family.

    SOME THINGS zAmOUT J^EW HAMTSHIT^E OTIS G. HAMMOND Director of the New Hampshire Historical Society SECOND EDITION REVISED NEW HAMPSHIRE HISTORICAL SOCIETY CONCORD, N. H. 1930 V^EW HAM<PSHI%E APT. JOHN MASON was the founder of C New Hampshire. He was a merchant and shipmaster, and became a friend of the Duke of Buckingham, himself a royal favorite, and so he prospered, and received favors, appoint­ ments, and lands from the crown. For several years Capt. Mason was governor of Portsmouth, England, and at his house in that city Bucking­ ham was assassinated in 1628. In 1622 Mason received from the Council for New England a grant of all the land between the Naumkeag and Merrimack Rivers, which he proposed to call Mariana. Later in the same year he and Sir Ferdinando Gorges received a grant of all the land between the Merrimack and Kennebec Rivers, extending 60 miles inland, which they called the Province of Maine. In 1629 Mason alone received a grant of the land between the Merrimack and Piscataqua Rivers, and this he called New Hampshire, his home being in Hampshire, England. The territory east of the Piscataqua was assigned to Gorges, and both grantees entered enthusiastically upon plans for settling their new domains. On Nov. 17, 1629, only ten days after the grant of New Hampshire to Capt. Mason, a SOMK THINGS great tract of land covering practically the same coast limits, but extending inland to what is now Lake Champlain, was granted to Mason and Gorges together, and called Laconia. The reason for this grant is not clear.
