The Manchester History & Genealogy web site is a volunteer project to offer genealogical and history resources for researchers of Manchester NH and area. CELEBRATING THIS WEB SITE'S *19TH* ANNIVERSARY IN 2020.

This is NOT the "official" City of Manchester NH web site. All city business should be directed to http://www.manchesternh.gov/

If you have photographs or other Manchester NH information (such as historical documents, old bibles, etc) that you would like to share, please contact me, and I will give you credit for your photograph or other contribution.

This web site is dedicated to the memories of three amazing Manchester women--my mother Mary, my grandmother, Addie, and my great-grandmother, Mary.
