DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The History of Windham in New Hampshire (Rockingham County), 1719-1883: A Scotch Settlement (Commonly Called Scotch-Irish), Embracing Nearly One Third of the Ancient Settlement and Historic Township of Londonderry, N. H., With the History and Genealogy of Its First Settlers and Their Descendants N o town history is complete which fails to include the history of the families of the town. When this is omitted, it is like the play of Hamlet with Hamlet left out. Into this portion of the work I have put greater labor, time, and expense than in the history proper. It is as complete as an extensive research could make it. In almost every instance, the genealogies have been worked up by myself. It has been my aim to give a history and genealogy of our earliest settlers and their descendants to the present time, whether residing in Windham or elsewhere; and this plan will explain the appearance here of the history and portraits of many who are not natives of this town. To do this in all cases has been impossible, as many of them removed from town and left no sign and so far as this history is concerned, beyond the records herein given, over them rests the shadow of silence and oblivion. In some instances I have traced families for more than a century after their removal from town. When it was practicable, I have followed fami lies from the emigrating ancestor to the latest descendant.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe natural beauty and fertile lands of Windham drew first the Pawtucket Indians and then Scotch-Irish settlers. The town's rich history is full of intriguing stories, including Wallace Fessenden's unscrupulous baseball umpiring, the return of a native son after his burial at sea in Indonesia and the poetic life of the Rustic Bard, Robert Dinsmoor. Tourism boomed as early as the 1850s, when visitors flocked to the waterside temptations of Canobie Lake and later Cobbett's Pond, where eccentric millionaire Edward Searles built his famous castle. Local historian Derek Saffie weaves together a collection of historic stories from the settlement's roots as Nutfield to the town of Windham.
