This web site is a guide for people researching history and genealogy in the State of New Hampshire, USA.

This site named to Family Tree Magazine’s list of Best State Websites for Genealogy, published in the December 2011 issue

If you know the COUNTY of origin that you wish to research, start with the COUNTY LIST section. If you don't know the county, there is a link at the top of the COUNTY LIST page for you to learn the county where your particular town is located. If you don't know the town, I recommend you use the search engine, to find a name or other known data.

If you are researching your genealogy (family tree) and wish to locate vital statistics or other documents, and general research tools in New Hampshire, select the RESEARCH page.

No genealogical research is complete without learning about the HISTORY of your area of research.

For maps (old and current), along with statistics, demographics, and other background material, see the REFERENCE page.

Genealogical Mailing Lists, Queries, Surname Lists, and Message Boards can be found in the COMMUNICATE section.

Photographs and Likenesses of New Hampshire people, places and events can be found in the PHOTOGRAPH section.

See the SITE MAP if you want a detailed outline of where information is located on the entire web site. Most of the information and links to information are free, however fee-based resources that are of great value to researchers are included here.
